AUSTIN, Texas, July 29, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — UneeQ, a leader in digital human technology, will hold the first-ever speaking session co-presented by an AI-powered digital human at SIGGRAPH 2024.

Powered by generative AI, Sophie can hold realistic, human-like conversations with attendees. Her presence on stage will be the first time the technology has been tested in a truly open-ended and unscripted way.
UneeQ will deploy its orchestration technology, Synapse™, which synchronizes the large language model (LLM) with Sophie’s well-developed personality and the body of knowledge upon which she’s been trained for the global tech event.
UneeQ will demonstrate the seamless integration of its cutting-edge animation technologies, including Synanim™, with NVIDIA Audio2Face, an NVIDIA ACE NIM microservice for dynamic facial animation and lip sync. The company’s work enables an unprecedented level of realism and believability to digital human interactions, helping address the growing demand for humanized online brand engagements.
SIGGRAPH, the premier conference and exhibition on computer graphics and interactive techniques, will take place from July 28 to August 1 in Denver, Colorado.
