Combine this with an LLM with speech-to-text input and we could create a talking paintings like in harry potter movies. Heck, hang it on a door and hook it with smart lock to recreate the dorm doors in harry potter and see if people can trick it to open the door.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.

Harry Potter wasn't a fantasy movie, it was a SciFi and we just didn't know it.

I like your optimism where this doesn't result in making everything worse.

I was actually discussing this very idea with my brother, who went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios, Orrrlandooooo recently and while he enjoyed himself, said it felt like not much is new in theme parks nowadays. Adding in AI driven pictures you could actually talk to might spice it up.
