Re-thinking Streaming: Why Virtual Avatars?

#artificialintelligence

The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Spring 2020 prompted a rapid and unprecedented adoption of streaming in nearly all aspects of life from, education to business and even leisure. Two years after the pandemic began, streaming services like Zoom, Teams, and many others have become household names. We now rely on these services to connect us with friends and family, conduct work meetings, and connect when we cannot be physically present. With the rapid adoption of new streaming tools, many have tried to replicate the in-person meeting experience without utilizing the benefits that these new tools can provide. By now many of us have probably experienced "Zoom Fatigue" from being in constant virtual meetings throughout the day.
