It seems they (almost) crossed the uncanny valley.

Incredibly real...

Holy Crap, seems we're on the verge of a world where everything/nothing is real...mind blowing work they're doing.

And that, however impressive, is quite frightening!

Soon, our world will no longer even need actors! RIP Hollywood.

Ha! I was half expecting the background of the two guys being interviewed to fall away and the punchline to be that they were digital doubles!

I'm not sure about that. Making a digital human being is one thing, but to act you still need an actor, be it an animator or a real actor. But with the progress in the field of AI you never know.
