Will Our AI Digitial Twins Become Our HCI of the Future? with Jim Spohrer

https://baychi.org/calendar/20250812/ Jim will explore the possibility, pros, and cons of AI digital twins as our ultimate human-computer interface for the future. As the marginal cost of computing goes to zero, there will be an explosion in digital service offerings aimed at helping us transform into better future versions of ourselves: healthier, wealthier, and wiser. The emerging transdisciplinary field of service science offers a useful lens for exploring these possibilities. Homework: Re-watch the [Apple Knowledge Navigator video](   • Apple Knowledge Navigator Video (1987)  ) and imagine your AI Digital Twin in place of the guy with the bow-tie. Imagine colleagues' Digital Twins and yours having thousands of conversations in the time the real conversation happens.

He holds a PhD in Computer Science/Artificial Intelligence from Yale and a BS in Physics from MIT.
