It mimics everything incredibly well, except for curiosity ("?") and soul ("!"). Very much like print, soulless speech patterns persist through the entire interview, as if they were reading a screenplay. The hesitations and pauses are still there, but not the soul. So either AI translates English punctuation poorly, or they weren't picked-up enough times to mimic themselves into this interview. Example: "Abolutely, Joe!" is very flat and non-emotional. It is uttered as a louder sentence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meu0CoYv3z8&t=460s

it was actually pretty good at adding some emotion here and there

i wonder if they have some extra input/coding to mark for inflections, etc

maybe they just tried a bunch of times and picked the best fit for the context
