YouTuber Personas Take FaceTime Call on Apple Vision Pro

YouTuber iJustine joined MKBHD and Brian Tong in a FaceTime call to demo their Personas created with Apple Vision Pro.

Shared alongside with their videos today, YouTube creators iJustine, MKBHD, and Brian Tong appeared in a FaceTime call together to discuss Apple Vision Pro – or, should I say, their Personas did?

On Justine’s page, she posted a video of the call as the three demo their Personas, generated from scans taken with Apple Vision Pro, where Marques Brownlee says:

The faces are impressive… I think…

It’s very, very… it’s just at the edge of uncanny valley. I know what you guys look like so I know they look like you…”

The effect is almost unsettling, and yet obviously them – it’s sort of like a previous generation video game character version of each person.

Brian Tong says:

I feel like this is a 9/10 to how we actually look

And Justine agrees, continuing:

It’s pretty good. And also skin tones too, because all three of us have very different complexions and I feel like it actually (laughs) It actually did a pretty good job.

Marques continues:

Every single time I’ve gotten on a FaceTime call with this, it’s the same reaction of “Whoa!” Like, “This is weird…

And I realize I’ve gotten used to it, and I think after a while everyone using this is just going to get used to using it after getting over the initial “Holy crap, look at this thing.”
