About Event

How can AI enhance the way we play, create, and connect? Join us and explore how AI is being used to build more meaningful and interactive digital experiences. From social games to open-ended simulations, learn more about how our speakers are using AI in ways that make creativity and play more personal and accessible.

More About the Sharings:

  • Ryan Foo (CEO, Sonzai Labs) will be sharing how AI can be used to create immersive and hyperpersonalized consumer social experiences, through real-time interaction design, and about their second title, Pocket Souls.

  • Vishnu Hari (Founder & CEO, ego ai) will be sharing how generative AI is transforming simulation and interactive media. ego ai is building the first AI-native simulation engine that allows non-technical creators to generate lifelike characters, immersive 3D worlds, and interaction logic using just prompts. Through live demos like TownWorld, a real-time AI-driven simulation of an entire town streamed on Twitch, Vishnu will explore how large language models can power dynamic behaviors, emergent narratives, and open-ended virtual environments that make simulation creation more accessible than ever.
