SXSW 2023
Future Challenges in Human-Avatar Interaction
Description:
The global pandemic opened a doorway to the future, pushing us to connect, work, and learn through virtual worlds. But we’ve yet to fathom the complex psychology of human-avatar interaction and how it transforms our online and offline behavior. Exploring this issue from our work with universities, NGOs, and workforce training projects, we’ll examine passivity, aggression, and the Proteus Effect on offline behavior to understand our future lives as human and AI-driven avatars in virtual worlds.
