Look out for latest info about Microsoft Mesh and AI from Microsoft

There are 46 session in Metaverse One 2023. As much I would love to praise them all here, I just have to pick up a few to highlight.

Bringing People Together in 3D: Immersive Experiences in Microsoft Mesh.
In this session, you’ll learn from Cathy Moya, a senior product manager at Microsoft, how to use Microsoft Mesh to enhance your hybrid work and collaboration with avatars, spatial audio, and 3D environments. You’ll also get some practical tips on how to plan your own immersive experiences using Microsoft Mesh, and how to prepare yourself and others for this new way of working and interacting.

Building Shared Immersive Experiences with Microsoft Mesh.
You’ll see how to build shared immersive environments and experiences in Mesh from Megha Sharma and Brent Jackson, who are product manager and program manager at Microsoft. You’ll also discover some common use cases and best practices for using Mesh in different scenarios, such as meetings, events, education, and entertainment. You’ll also learn what roles, skills, and tools you need to create successful experiences with Mesh.

There is more!
You’ll also get to hear from two other experts on the topics of Responsible Metaverse and What’s next for AI and the Metaverse.

Pouneh Kaufman, a group program manager at Microsoft, will talk about the ethical and social implications of the Metaverse, and how to ensure that it is inclusive, accessible, and respectful of everyone’s rights and preferences.

Karuana Gatimu, a principal program manager at Microsoft, will share what we should expect next in her endnote session, What’s next for AI and the Metaverse. I would be really surprised if we didn’t hear about Microsoft Copilot in her session. Ending keynote begins at European evening 8pm, in London at 7pm, in New York pleasantly on the afternoon at 2pm and people in US West Coast can catch it just before their lunch at 11am.

I did mention Copilot, and there is more about that topic. The superstar Vesa-Matti “Vesku” Paananen from Microsoft is talking about Microsoft Copilot in his session How Microsoft 365 Copilot approach can transform your metaverse applications with AI. It is about how the metaverse is the next frontier for intelligent applications that leverage the power of AI models like GPT and in the session, he will explore how Microsoft 365 Copilot works and how it can be used as an example to help you create more engaging and productive experiences in the metaverse.

All this would miss a lot, if we would not include everyone in the Future (and today). Dona Sarkar “Chief Troublemaker”, from Microsoft, brings our attention to inclusivity with her session How to Build Inclusive Metaverse, AI and other Emerging Tech Experiences.

Don’t miss this opportunity to discover the future of AI and metaverse from Microsoft speakers!
