Zoom filters that completely replace your face

. The company says this feature, which is included in the Zoom 5.10 update, will only let you become an animal at launch, but that new avatar options will be added in the future.

Zoom sees this feature as useful for a lot of different scenarios — in its press release, it mentions showing up with an avatar filter on could “bring some fun to your team-building meetings” or help pediatricians seem less intimidating to young children. There’s also the idea that it could help alleviate Zoom fatigue. At leastthat constantly looking at yourself to make sure you’re presentable and reacting appropriately is part of what makes being in video calls all day so tiring.

would be way funnier if 'meeting as a dog' was replaced by 'meeting as dog'

WHY I PREFER A RIDICULOUS ANIMATION INSTEAD OF MY CHARISMATIC FACE

This is the best use of the internet since porn.
