On Monday David was on the panel for the launch of Sensay's AI Chatbot Hackathon, talking about his work on virtual humans, and touching on some of the issues around digital amortality and embedding bots in the metaverse. The Hackathon details - building new bot applications with the Sensay API - are at https://dorahacks.io/hackathon/sensay-connect/detail.
One of David's (many) summer projects is to try and use the API in order to use Sensay to power chatbots within virtual worlds. Any progress will be reported here.
