I think the main problem here is with transitions between animation states and matching each animation to the context. If ML motion matching[1] becomes popular in the industry, I think it would smooth out these issues a lot.

I remember this being solved over ten years ago, without ML, there was this software that seamlessly blended between poses and activities (morphine or something like that?). I wonder what happened to them. Unreal 5 also has similar tech.

can't find anything on "morphine", but animation blending is something that Unity/Unreal/etc had for a while. Although, I don't think any publicly available engine solves this like Ubisoft ML models do. Usually it requires at lot of work to look seamless
