Dr Phillip Alvelda, artificial intelligence innovator, technologist and educator, joins us from Washington DC.We joined Dr Alvelda during Hybrid World Adelaide, just after his mind boggling 60 minute deep dive into Artificial Intelligence. Please stay tuned following my interview with Dr Alvelda in today’s episode for a fascinating 20 minute slice of his talk about the amazing world of AI.Dr. Alvelda is the founding CEO of Cortical.ai, a U.S. based developer of anthropomorphic AI and machine learning tools, digital twins, and synthetic personalities.We discussed Dr Alvelda’s start as a funny Argentinian kid, inspired by man first landing on the moon, and seeded by a childhood of microscopes, models of computers, electronics kits, a Lego obsession, and not getting discouraged by how science was taught at his school. This ignited an positive university experience and love of experimentation, and a career driving technological discovery, including travelling through AI winters and more buoyant times, as the support and technology started to catch up with the dream.Dr Alvelda has worked in areas from incorporating technology into our brains to communicate with each other, to developing AI to be more human, understanding context and learning from memories. How do we allow robots to be more human? And, from the work Dr Alvelda and his associates are doing the question is not if but when!Real People is a podcast hosted by Jason Dunstone, the founder and managing director of Square Holes.

What does is take to be a good interviewer? How do you capture content in order to create a story that will take your audience on a journey - and keep them with you until the end? As a content creator and storyteller, these are questions I search to answer as I work to continually improve my interview techniques. Sitting down at Hybrid World Adelaide with Marc Fennell, renowned Australian radio, tv and podcast interviewer and presenter was therefore a huge honour (and also slightly intimidating!) As the anchor of SBS VICELAND's news show The Feed, Marc has interviewed high profile people from Al Gore to Tom Cruise. Marc also created and presents ABC Radio National's award-winning podcast Download This Show, so he has a wealth of experience and knowledge to share on the topics of interview techniques and storytelling. In today's episode of Be The Drop, Marc talks about how to take people on a journey through storytelling, why story is critical to all forms of communication, especially in today's digital world plus he shares some top tips to improve your interview techniques. -- Want more?

What does it mean to live and communicate in Hybrid World? Technology advancements are increasingly making our lives easier as machine learning, ai + robots improve process delivery. However at the same time, humans need to decide how we want to shape our digital life. As more of our data is captured in order to deliver these efficiencies, what are the boundaries we believe are necessary, in order to protect individuals privacy and what are the ethical parameters we want to implement on how much we allow machines to do? These questions are at the heart of what was discussed at Hybrid World Adelaide, a digital entertainment and technology event that explores the future of a 'hybrid world', where the real and digital worlds collide and ultimately evolve. In today's episode of Be The Drop, I interview Dr Phillip Alvelda, Rae Johnston and Amanda Duthie who discuss the convergence of technology and humanity in a hybrid world and I share my top takeaways from the leaders in this field on the opportunities that it presents us.

Today’s very cool episode is with Robert Tercek, one of the world’s most prolific creators of interactive content, a ground breaking pioneer in digital media since the early 1990’s and author of the Vaporized: Solid Strategies for Success in a Dematerialized World.Jason sat down with Robert in the lobby of the Intercontinental Hotel in Adelaide, South Australia while on his visit from Los Angeles. He was in town in his role as Creative Director for Hybrid World Adelaide, a digital entertainment and technology event launched in 2017 that explores the future of a ‘hybrid world’, where the real and digital worlds collide and ultimately evolve.Robert has held Creative Director, President and other senior executive roles for Sony Pictures, MTV, Oprah Winfrey Network, and now advisory group General Creativity.He has worked across media platforms from web, wireless, interactive television, games consoles, and digital satellite & cable TV, and drove digital media innovation, well before digital and the internet were concepts as we know today.Robert talks with passion at how hard it was initially to convince media executives to embrace digital media, as it was against what they knew and accepted as the way media worked. He shares his story growing up in Cleveland Ohio as curious about everything, and how the rough economy in Cleveland at the time, has shaped his drive for the need for businesses, cities and towns to seek constant reinvention and renaissance.We discuss what can be learnt from businesses such as Apple, the Dollar Shave Club and Burberry, and the importance of blind spot coaching and seeing opportunities in the periphery. And, working with the newly informed and highly empowered consumer.Robert was very generous with his insight, experience and observations.Real People is a podcast hosted by Jason Dunstone, the founder and managing director of Square Holes.

This week on Player Attack, it's a fight to the death. 2017 might just go down in history as the year of the last-man-standing games. There's an ongoing debate over who was first, who deserves the most accolades, and whether everybody should just read more Japanese best-sellers... but today, we checked out two of the biggest names. Nate and three of his friends spend some time wandering around PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, in this week's instalment of Two Hour Steam. All four are dropped onto an island, with a warzone that keeps shrinking. Will they choose to refund their money, or hang onto this one in the hope of more chicken dinners? Jessica (with a little help from Mythor) prefers the stylised cartoon graphics of Epic Games' latest, Fortnite. The team's just released the Battle Royale expansion for the game, which adds a very familiar play mode to the already-awesome survival experience. Is it a blatant rip-off though, or does it add enough new stuff to the genre? And if all this Lord of the Flies stuff isn't for you, then come along with us as we revisit Hybrid World Adelaide - a futurist festival held in Adelaide earlier this month. Kids were invited to rebuild iconic locations in a Minecraft masterclass with Wyld, and other students faced off in the world's first LAN League of Legends tournament for high schools. ...plus, of course, we have all the latest in gaming news - this is Player Attack! http://www.playerattack.com
This week on Player Attack, we're thinking of the children. Firstly - obviously - in our review of brand new "parenting simulator" Think of the Children, out now through Surprise Attack Games. It's the sort of fast-paced, frenetic action we last saw in Overcooked - but is it as good? Isn't it kind of creepy to be, basically, killing kids? Janet Gaeta (formerly Janet Carr) is also thinking of the children. She's one of the creative directors working on new technology festival Hybrid World Adelaide, which hits the Tonsley Innovation Precinct (the old Mitsubishi site) October 4-8. The event features a world-first League of Legends LAN competition for high school students, a chance to literally build the future in Minecraft, and opportunities for people to learn how to code or fly their own drone. If you can't get there, don't fret - Angelo has a lengthy interview with Janet as part of Player A-Chat, and we've got a decent chunk of it right here for your viewing pleasure. ...plus, of course, we have all the latest in gaming news - this is Player Attack! http://www.playerattack.com
