Eye On A.I. · Video Is About to Stop Being One-Way (and That Changes Everything) | Victor Riparbelli, Synthesia · 28 Jul 2026 podcast

Like we'll probably focus more again on like business use cases, training use cases, HR use cases, which is more like kind of the world that Synthesia generally sits in.

And there'll probably be other companies who go and make amazing consumer level experiences of like talking to celebrities or...

you know, almost like game show kind of thing.

There'll be a lot of like new experiences that's brought to life.

So I think we're about to see the industry, up until now, it's been

everyone operating pretty close to what each one does.

But I just think the next couple of years we'll see a much bigger diversity in what the companies are doing and what they choose to focus on.

Yeah, so we train voice models ourselves.

We train video models ourselves and real-time video models ourselves.

We also use third-party providers for language coverage.

And I'm not like, you know, extremely beholden to the fact that we need to do everything in-house.

But what we've seen is that across some of these modalities like voice, for example, our customers have some needs which are not available in the market.

They really want to preserve their accent, for example.

A lot of the existing solutions are not very good at that.

So we built those ourselves.

Yeah.

I think there is going to be a foundation model layer, and then there's going to be an application layer, and then it's going to be some mix in between, right?

And I think what we're very clearly seeing now is that the players that have the most compute and the most talent, like Google with VO3, can produce amazing models.

Frankly, a world model like that, it's very hard for me to compete on, even though I've raised a lot of money and we're a pretty big company.

I don't want to compete on like very general models that can do anything you want, which is basically what these companies are, right?
