Presumably the people working on an AI would be more interested in
cognitive processes than wasting time on overly polished video and
speech. If I was personally creating a video rendering interface for
an AI avatar, I'd worry about functionality rather than keeping up
with state of the art graphics and speech rendering, let the AI handle
it once it understands that domain.
