Useful for Training, Unsettling for Teaching
I experimented with Synthesia for creating course content. The avatars are technically impressive and the multilingual dubbing opens real accessibility possibilities. But something is lost. My students reported lower engagement with AI-presented material versus webcam recordings, even when the script was identical. The uncanny valley still matters in education.
Synthesia delivers a smooth interface for creating AI videos with 240+ avatars and 160+ languages, saving time on production as promised. However, the feature overload, like live collaboration and analytics, can clutter the experience for users wanting straightforward tools. It's decent but could refine its focus.
