    Meta wants to dub your Reels with the help of AI.

    Zuckerberg says that Meta is experimenting with automatic video dubbing and lip-syncing on Reels so that your videos can reach people in more languages. We didn’t get a live video of this, but he showed a video onstage of Spanish Reels dubbed into English.

    YouTube has been exploring auto-dubbing, too.

    I still think it’s pretty bad, but people in the crowd seem to love it.

    A person in the audience was wearing the Quest 3S to show off the passthrough, but the demo failed pretty quickly.
