This might likely develop faster than your typical researcher's presentation skills. It could also increase access more generally. Science communication is a skill, plus an interested reader's ability to get to a conference (or watch the recordings) is limited. If this expands access to science, I'm for it.
(and I generally think AI-produced content is slop).
IMO this seems like exactly the use cases where AI fails consistently: engaging storytelling and finding the simplest solution to a problem. For example, LLMs are really good at generating walls of code that will run but don't really have good taste in architecting a solution. When I use them for coding I will spend time thinking of a good high-level approach and then use LLMs to fill in the more boilerplate style code
