AWS Highlights Proto at LA Tech Week |
During LA Tech Week on October 14-15, AWS used Proto’s holographic technology for a unique AI experience at the Culver Theatre. Attendees engaged with a conversational persona of William Shatner, explaining what they wanted, and within minutes, a personalized AI-generated video built on Amazon Bedrock was generated in our device. These videos were later featured in a 30-second highlight reel on digital billboards at Santa Monica Place, showcasing the seamless integration of AI and holographic tech to deliver real-time personalized content. |
PwC: Shaping a Future Where Humans and Technology Thrive Together |
PwC continues to use Proto’s groundbreaking technology in their vision to shape a future where humans and machines thrive together. Rather than replacing human roles, Proto’s conversational AI persona capabilities—photorealistic avatars that speak up to 127 languages and can sense their surroundings—are enhancing human potential across various fields. PwC has been experimenting with Proto in use cases ranging from interior design to retail and even astronomy, showcasing how AI-driven holograms can complement human creativity and expertise. By leveraging Proto, PwC is leading the way in creating a future where machines empower, rather than replace, human talent. |
