🎭 Real-Time AI Avatars Run on Single GPU
**DaydreamLiveAI** released **Scope v0.2.5**, a 7-node workflow that generates real-time agent avatars with natural gestures, eye movement, and facial expressions. **Key features:** - Combines LTX Studio's LTX 2.3 model (rare open-weights model) - Joint audio-video generation from single prompt - Face-front avatar LoRAs trained on close-up footage - Natural lip sync, eye motion, and microexpressions - Runs on single GPU **Performance improvements:** - Skips CPU offload on high-VRAM GPUs - Faster generation speed vs. previous flat talking faces The workflow addresses a common limitation where image-to-agent avatars typically appear as static talking heads, instead delivering dynamic, responsive avatars that react to their own lighting.
