| Sumario: | Technological developments have always had a huge influence on our world. Research in Virtual Reality (VR) is concerned with computing technologies that allow humans to see, hear, talk, think, learn, and solve problems in virtual and augmented environments. Research in Artificial Intelligence (AI) addresses technologies that allow computing machines to mimic these same human abilities. We are also at an interesting juncture in the evolution of the digital age, where there is an enormous amount of computing power and data in the hands of everyone. There has been an exponential growth in the amount of data we now have in digital form. Thus, bringing them together will enable us to create more natural and realistic virtual worlds and develop better, more effective applications. Ultimately, this will lead to a future in which humans and humans, humans and machines, and machines and machines are interacting naturally in virtual worlds, with use cases and benefits we are only just beginning to imagine.
