AI has become a valuable ally in envisioning this scale of production, combined with unparalleled quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One area where Geoffrey and his team have started implementing AI is in the creation of \u201cavatars\u201d \u2013 digital characters with voices that guide learners throughout their educational journey. A preview of their work, still in progress, shows impressive results. The avatars are so lifelike that they give the impression of having a real human interacting with learners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Simplifying Content Evolution with AI<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of AI&rsquo;s greatest advantages lies in its ability to facilitate content updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith AI, we no longer need to re-record everything. The ability to update content becomes much easier,\u201d Geoffrey explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, by using an avatar, they can modify or add new dialogue without needing to start from scratch, maintaining existing productions while reducing redundancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Other AI Techniques in Use<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The team also employs other AI-driven techniques, such as phototalking and creating immersive images. These methods require extensive research and monitoring but yield impressive, high-quality results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Goodbye Traditional Techniques, Hello Generative AI? Let\u2019s Talk About Hybridization.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u00ab\u00a0We use the technical solutions offered by generative AI and hybridize them with our traditional tools, such as editing suites and post-production effects,\u201d Geoffrey notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Well-Defined Legal Framework for Avatars<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, Geoffrey underscores the importance of the legal framework surrounding this transformation, particularly when integrating AI. The performers and actors CNED works with are not replaced by AI; they remain integral to the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThese individuals lend their image and voice under strict agreements. For example, when we create a hyperrealistic avatar at CNED, we could theoretically use it freely, but that\u2019s not the case,\u201d Geoffrey explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Actors sign contracts specifying the scope of their work as avatars, including a defined number of videos for educational purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThanks to such contracts, we can maintain our videos if updates are required, but we cannot create new videos with that avatar without the person\u2019s consent,\u201d he concludes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learn more:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cned.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">CNED Official Website<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this third and final episode on innovation at CNED, Geoffrey Courcelle, Director of Audiovisual, details how CNED uses AI to enhance the production of media for their training modules.
