It works well from a technical standpoint, but who is this for? I'm sick of marketing mail with fake handwriting that are meant to resemble personal communication that will definitely be opened. What value is being created here?

The value is almost entirely as a technical demo of current machine learning techniques. Handwritten fonts will always be a more reliable way to create synthetic handwriting, so I don't see this as something that will be used as anything other than a toy.
