Learn more from this talk from #G4C2023 about the metaverse and virtual beings. Who is behind that avatar you're talking to in the metaverse? While most avatars are powered by people right now, the rise of AI and NLP means that avatars powered by algorithms are coming soon. What do issues of transparency and consent around this look like? How can humans power their own avatars in an ethical way?

Speakers:
- Courtney Harding (Founder and CEO, Friends With Holograms)
