HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 8 August 2024 - The annual Digital Entertainment Leadership Forum (DELF) 2024, organised by Cyberport, will be held from August 16 to 18 at the Cyberport campus.

This year's theme is "Imaginary Fairground: AI-Powered Entertainment in the Web 3.0 Era". The event will feature industry forums, experiential zones, workshops, and competitions, allowing attendees to immerse themselves in a vibrant carnival atmosphere. Together, they will explore the innovative applications of AI in the digital entertainment and smart living domains, and personally experience the seamless integration of the virtual and physical realms.

The DELF 2024 Experience Zone will feature four major themes with nearly 50 experiential activities, bringing the public interactive and personalised entertainment experiences. The "Smart Lifestyle" theme allows attendees to experience ChatsOK, an interactive AI chatbot used for education and training, IFLYTEK's AI simultaneous interpretation technology, as well as DIGITAL MUSE, a fusion of art and technology that generates personalised "Queen" images in real-time powered by AI. The "Robotics" section will highlight Unitree Robotics' self-walking and running humanoid robots, Unitree H1, UBTech's Walker X that can perform Tai Chi, and the "R2C2 ARC platform" that enables users to monitor, control, and distribute automated patrol and inspection tasks. In the "Sports & Gaming" theme, the Hong Kong-based "Z Challenger" uses geospatial data to recreate Hong Kong's actual terrain, developing an immersive racing simulation game. The "Culture & Arts" theme will present the "Van Gogh DigiVillage", using innovative art technology (Art Tech) to raise awareness of art, culture, and nature conservation, as well as showcase the works of the world's first AI ink wash artist, A.I. GEMINI.

The three-day event will bring together representatives from leading digital entertainment companies and distinguished speakers to explore how emerging technologies such as AI, high-performance computing (HPC), and Web 3.0 are shaping the future of digital entertainment and smart living. Over 30 experts from international and local tech giants, including Microsoft, Cisco, Alibaba, Baidu, Foxconn, Xiaohongshu, Dell, NVIDIA, BytePlus, Meta, teamLab, 9GAG & Memeland, ESRI, FATface Production, member of OneCool Group, as well as the representatives from academic institutions such as the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong Baptist University, and Cornell University, will share their professional insights on leveraging AI, Web 3.0 and other technologies to drive the transformation of digital entertainment, cultural tourism, and smart living.

Dr Rocky Cheng, CEO of Cyberport, said, "AI and its applications are rapidly evolving and deeply integrating with various industries, becoming a critical driver for industrial upgrading and transformation. The AI ecosystem that Cyberport focuses on developing has become an engine for the growth of related industries. We have gathered 200 companies specialising in R&D, application, and infrastructure for AI and data science.
