How do you improve real-world use when working with AI Character Animation?

On How do you improve real-world use when working with AI Character Animation?, the part about real-world and character stands out to me. I would test one small workflow first, keep the variables consistent, and compare the result before changing several things at once. The original point — "I have been exploring AI Character Animation and wanted to ask people who have tried it in practice. I am particularly interested in real-world use and learning curve. I would lik…" — gives a useful starting point for that comparison.

The point about real-world and character is interesting. In practice I would keep the first test simple, record what worked, and only add extra complexity if it solves a specific limitation. That way you can improve the workflow without losing track of what caused the improvement.
