Theme for the Papers
Metaverse is a virtual world that transcends reality and has a very egocentric perspective of operation. This is a decentralized platform that together with AI is used to create an extended reality through machine vision. AI in Metaverse can be used for networking and blockchain. The role of Metaverse can be very extensive in nature where digital twins of natural persons can be used and smart cities can be formed as an interactive tool. These smart cities will be parallel to reality and can be used to socially interact with family and friends, from a manufacturing point of view it can be used as a digital interface between the manufacturer and consumers.
But it is also very important to tread carefully into the world of Metaverse as it still poses questions regarding the privacy of individuals and the application of common law in this decentralized environment. Hence, we have brought forth the theme: “Responsible AI for the decentralized environment of Metaverse”.
Subthemes:
- Regulation in a decentralized environment
