We often think of mixed reality as blurring the lines between reality and fiction - and do that effectively, developers have long battled to make virtual and augmented worlds more realistic and immersive. Significant progress has been made in displays, haptics, motion tracking, and graphics, but what role does generative AI have to play? And how can developers leverage AI to unlock a new frontier in mixed reality?
AI-driven characters will pave the way for new forms of entertainment, education, and communication. Join Inworld and our partners Niantic and Liquid City in a discussion on developing mixed reality experiences with intelligent characters.

In this thought provoking talk we follow the story of John Henry, a character known for his incredible strength and stamina, as he competes against a steam drill powered by artificial intelligence in a high-stakes race to build AI powered XR applications, platforms and even reshape society.
Together we probe critical questions on AI generation of art, music, code, and more.
1. How do these AI tools affect XR creation?
2. What new kinds of applications and services do AI tools unlock?
3. How does AI support new opportunities to scale?
4. What are new kinds of AI enabled business models?
5. What concerns should we have about the rapid deployment of AI to change society?
ChatGPT, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, DALL-E, Copilot, Lensa, and 3D XR Asset Creation are just the beginning.
Will AI eat our reality?
Join us as we consider the age-old question of what happens when technology surpasses humanity's abilities in the race to build a new XR reality and how it fundamentally changes our existing one.

Villa is a virtual world creation and collaboration platform in VR for enterprises and consumers who want to take meetings and productivity to the next level. The platform offers experiences that are increasingly driven by generative AI. As AI continues to permeate every aspect of our digital lives, this event aims to explore the practical applications of GenAI in XR.
Attendees can expect discussions on the efficacy of GenAI in XR, and the emerging industry opportunities and trends in the short, mid, and long term. From automating content generation and retrieval in immersive environments to the use of Avatar AI assistants and support, productivity, and creation in gaming, education, and enterprise settings, the possibilities of leveraging AI in XR are limitless. The unique nature of XR platforms, with their reliance on audio-visual interactions, presents new considerations for AI integrations.
We'll delve into challenges such as uncanniness while bridging limitations of current assistant technology like Siri. We'll explore the potential impact of GenAI interaction speed and value creation in immersive worlds where time and practicality are on a different scale, as well as the formats that users embrace. Attendees will examine how AI can deliver lasting value and an increase in user satisfaction.
