I think we can all agree that AI/AGI is transforming the digital landscape of just about everything. What these transformative AI/AGI applications will herald is the need for a smart AI interface, a human-like interface. ‘Digital People’ are human-like, digitally created AI constructs (CGI animations; avatars) that appear to be humans and that can be empowered to converse, react, and respond quite like real humans.
Digital
people technology will also advance the socially assistive robotics space. And the
adoption will be rapid. The current domain of humanoid like robot hardware form
factors being used today for socially assistive robotics remains bogged down in
search of use cases that justify their cost and clearly demonstrate utility. This
is true especially in the in-home and retail store markets which remain the ‘two
burial grounds’ for today’s popular humanoid robot form factor hardware. In-home
and retail space is just too limited, too obstacle riddled, and the intrusion of
roaming robots wandering around is just too great. Screen based AI/AGI digital
people platforms will be widely adopted.
‘Digital people’ robotic initiatives will
deliver:
Voice controlled AI/AGI portals
A sense of authentic engagement powered by AI/AGI
Increased trustworthiness of robot interaction platforms
A growing sense of knowledgeable/learning companionship
A method of interface that feels like a personal, live T.V.
and escapes the ‘uncanny valley’.
