The Augmented Conversation and the Amplified World

Explore the future of augmented reality (AR) and human communication in this visionary talk by David A. Smith, CEO of Croquet Corporation. Delve into the concept of "augmented conversation" and its potential to revolutionize how we express, share, and explore ideas through live simulations. Learn about the importance of "shared truth" in AR experiences and how it enables real-time collaboration and idea exploration. Discover how AR is poised to replace current devices and become an always-on, personalized supercomputer that amplifies human intentions and ideas. Understand the critical need for interoperability in AR systems and the concept of building a "DOS of AR" to drive industry growth. Gain insights into how AR will transform communication, extend human narrative, and potentially redefine the very nature of human existence. Recorded at the ACM UIST 2020 conference, this talk offers a compelling vision of a future where the virtual and physical worlds seamlessly coexist, opening up new possibilities for human interaction and problem-solving.
