I’ve been fascinated with Mixed Reality since the introduction of the HoloLens.  There is something magical about combining Artificial Intelligence with Holograms.  In this workshop, I will show you a practical example of how to mix holograms and AI to create your own holographic assistant.

For this workshop, I will skip the theory and go directly to application using off-the-shelf tooling and models.  I hope to inspire the audience to look closer at the capabilities of off-the-shelf machine learning by tapping into the power of ML without building any custom models.

This talk will make use of a lot of different tools and technologies all available, accessible, and inexpensive.  I will use C#, Unity, a Holographic Display, Azure Cognitive Services, and Azure Open AI to create an interactive experience pushing the envelope of current tools and techniques.

Each attendee will create their own assistant using their own laptop, Azure subscription, Visual Studio, and Unity.  At the end of the workshop attendees will have the opportunity to demonstrate their assistant on a holographic display but will also build a working assistant that runs on 2D displays.

• Inspire the attendee to do more than create another text based chat bot
• Help the attendee to walk away with their own working assistant
