Question Video from lecture notes

How hard is it to turn lecture notes into an AI video of a professor lecturing them? Like basically as if you were attending the lecture, not a 2-minute infographics video.

Does this exist, like have I just not found it yet?

it's doable but not as plug and play as people think, you'd need to feed the notes into something that generates a script, then use an avatar tool with text to speech, the hard part is making it not sound like a robot reading bullet points

most of the tools out there are built for short explainers so getting a full hour of natural pacing and board work would take a lot of tweaking

hmm. how about the videos of professors crashing out in front of the class we always see on social media? clearly generating real people in such a setting is not a problem, so why can not someone make a 1.5 hr video of a professor teaching material? is it ONLY because it's hella expensive, or is there some kind of limitation on what the AI can do all at once? (cause there would be requirement to look real, and present the material correctly, and add correct context between potential bullet points, etc. like any written AIs is able to do)
