I don't think you have to watch anything to learn what gives CGI humans away. I don't think anyone has actually managed a truly convincing one yet. This is the closest I've seen:

Rachel's appearance in Blade Runner 2049 was shockingly good to me. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDx3WwWR6y4) On the other hand, I though Tarkin looked pretty good in Rogue One, and for some people he's a corpse. I don't think the uncanny valley is as consistent among people as folks here are suggesting.

Yeah I thought Tarkin was not convincing (though still really impressive, especially for the time). I totally forgot about Blade Runner - I agree that was really good - better than Star Wars.

The coolest thing about that video is how good it is, but the second coolest thing about that video is the fact that Lucasfilm recently decided to hire the guy that made it.

I feel like Deepfakes really count as CGI human though. At least not in the sense being thrown around by Nvidia here

nVidia used deep fakes for this.
