Exhibits
Here you can find the exhibits displayed at the Big Techday 2024.
AI Slides
With only a title, AI Slides automagically generates a complete slide deck from that, with headlines, notes and matching images. Even the presentation performance is taken over by artificial intelligence: a realistic Deepfake avatar - trained with the knowledge of the entire Internet - guides you through the slides. Visitors can even become the speakers of this interactive showcase themselves.
HIGHLINE
Atlassion Tools Island
Explore Atlassian integrations tailored to enhance your team's productivity and collaborative efforts at the Atlassian Tools island. Use TNG-developed applications from the Atlassian Marketplace, such as "Rock your Sprint Review" and "Multivote & Enterprise Survey", to automatically convert sprint issues into review slides, or create dynamic, conditional surveys involving multiple users. Leverage on-demand translation of Confluence pages to overcome language barriers, engage with an AI-driven Q&A bot for thorough content queries, or streamline page editing with AI-assisted content generation.
HIGHLINE
Blobby VR
This Virtual Reality multiplayer game takes you to a virtual volleyball match where you'll play as one of two blobs in the style of the legendary game "Blobby Volley". You'll need a lot of skill to catapult the ball into the opponent's field with your head, while your human opponent tries to prevent that from happening. Wireless Virtual Reality glasses in seethrough mode are used to prevent you from stumbling over a cable.
HIGHLINE
Chess AI
For many years, chess programs have performed better than even the best human players in the world. But how can one make this advantage more accessible to hobby players to help them improve their own game? That's what we try to aim for with our Chess AI. By integrating several AI systems, whole game analysis videos are created in which the strategies and mistakes of both players are explained and alternatives are shown. Naturally, some chess puzzles may also be included!
HIGHLINE
Code Tools Island
Explore advanced AI tools designed to boost developer efficiency in everyday software development tasks at the Code Tools island. Generate shell commands from natural language, get comprehensive explanations of existent code or generate entirely new code in an exisiting codebase. Additionally, discover how TNG has leveraged AI to speed up repetitive code migration tasks and analyze extensive codebases for potential refactorings.
HIGHLINE
Image Generation Island
Discover innovative tools that assist you in creating and editing digital images, videos and presentations at the Image Generation island. These AI solutions facilitate the customization of visuals, from enhancing the quality of portraits, to generating videos for TNG's Christmas card, to crafting dynamic presentation background images tailored to the slides' contents.
HIGHLINE
KameraKInd
For our all hands meeting, we created an AI that can automatically focus the person currently talking - a task that was done by a human controlling the camera before. The camera will automatically detect all persons present in the picture and focus the person that is most actively speaking at the moment. Try it out for yourself in this showcase.
High Line
Music AI
This exhibit offers relaxing background music, in the style of LoFi HipHop and based on samples generated by Artificial Intelligence.
The goal of the project is to compose music with the help of Artificial Intelligence - live 24/7 and without repetition. For this purpose, we have chosen a genre which is already known by continuous YouTube streams.
HIGHLINE
Real-time Deepfakes
Imagine standing in front of a mirror where you are no longer looking at your own face, but rather at Donald Trump's. In real-time, an AI system swaps out your head while preserving your facial expressions. With this showcase you will experience yourself from a completely different perspective.
Using neural networks, faces are detected in the video input, translated into another personality and integrated back into the video output.
HIGHLINE
Style Transfer
What if Virtual Reality glasses could transform your environment into a huge 3D painting and everything would appear in the style of a work of art by Van Gogh, for example? In this showcase this vision becomes reality. The AI technique "Style Transfer" creates a patchwork from two images that shows reality in the style of an artwork. The resulting images are displayed in realtime in 3D using Virtual Reality glasses.
HIGHLINE
Summarizer Tools Island
Get to know AI solutions designed to succinctly synthesize information from various sources, including meeting recordings, books, emails and slack communications, at the Summarizer Tools island. Generate meeting notes from an audio recording or create concise summaries of texts or even entire Slack channels. Additionally, enhance email management with automatic classification features that highlight essential messages and detect phishing attempts.
HIGHLINE
TRUST AI
TRUST AI uses a dialogue between the visitor and a machine to explore the role of digital change and its significance for people and society. A glass cube with a holographic representation of a human face is placed on a table. An AI connects with the user. In the course of the dialogue, the visitor's face is captured by the machine and the machine assumes the visitor's identity.
