Akool на GeNAI Week 2025: голограммы, ключевые заметки и видео с искусственным интеллектом в реальном времени в действии

Introduction: A Week of GenAI Innovation in Silicon Valley

Santa Clara was buzzing from July 13–17, 2025 as GenAI Week Silicon Valley 2025 brought together over 30,000 AI enthusiasts, developers, and industry leaders. Amidst 400+ speakers and 300+ exhibitors, Akool made a standout impact. Our company didn’t just exhibit – we played an active role in powering the event’s cutting-edge experiences. From an eye-catching booth to a game-changing CEO keynote, GenAI Week was an incredible platform for Akool to showcase how real-time generative AI is transforming digital interaction.

Akool’s Role at GenAI Week 2025

As a leading AI video generation platform, Akool was proud to be both an exhibitor and a technology partner at GenAI Week 2025. In fact, our technology was woven into several aspects of the summit experience:

• AI-Powered Support Bot: The official GenAI Week website’s customer support chatbot was powered by an Akool interactive avatar, providing attendees with an AI virtual assistant online.
  
• Virtual Emcee: An Akool digital avatar (named “Alina”) served as a virtual host on-stage, introducing keynote speakers with lifelike speech and presence. This meant even the MC duties got a futuristic AI twist!
  
• Real-Time Translation: Our platform provided instant translation of keynote sessions into multiple languages, live-streamed and available in recordings, helping the global audience follow along in real time. Breaking language barriers in this way demonstrated how AI can make events more inclusive.
  
• Hologram Concierge: On the ground at the convention center, we deployed an Akool holographic avatar device as an on-site concierge. This life-sized AI hologram greeted visitors and answered questions, offering a futuristic customer service experience for attendees.
  

By integrating Akool’s real-time video and avatar technologies into the event, we helped enhance the attendee experience and demonstrated the practical power of generative AI. It was thrilling to see thousands interact with our innovations in a live setting.

Booth A03: A Holographic Avatar Experience

Our exhibit at Booth #A03 quickly became a crowd magnet at the summit. The star of the show was the Akool Holographic Avatar Display – a high-definition holographic projection system that brings AI-powered 3D avatars into the real world. Attendees were amazed to meet a life-sized virtual avatar “in person.” Many stopped in their tracks as our AI avatar smiled, greeted them, and engaged in live conversation, all within a glass-like hologram kiosk. This immersive demo let visitors experience the future: a digital human that talks, moves, and responds in real time with no human operator behind it.

What made our booth truly stand out was the interactive element. Visitors could try our AI tools hands-on – from seeing a real-time face swap (putting their own face into video clips) to testing voice cloning and multilingual lip-sync on the fly. Seeing themselves animated as an avatar or hearing their own voice generated by AI left people wide-eyed. It wasn’t just a demo, it was a glimpse into how content creation is becoming instantaneous and personalized. As one onlooker exclaimed, “This is what cutting-edge looks like. Well done team!”. Even seasoned innovators remarked how exciting it was to see Akool “pushing the boundaries of content creation” before their eyes. Our booth’s fusion of a physical hologram and interactive AI demos truly brought generative AI to life for attendees, making Akool one of the highlights on the expo floor.

CEO Jeff Lu’s Keynote Highlights

A major peak of the week was our CEO Jiajun “Jeff” Lu’s keynote address on the AGI Stage. Jeff is the Founder & CEO of Akool, and his talk, titled “Pioneering the Era of Real-Time AI Video Generation: Redefining Digital Interaction,” drew a packed audience. During this 40-minute session, he unveiled how real-time generative video is revolutionizing the way we create and share content. The core message was clear: thanks to AI, video production is moving from hours or days of work to instantaneous generation and customization.

Jeff introduced the concept of live AI avatars – virtual personas that can appear on video calls or presentations and interact with humans in real time. He showed how Akool’s avatars can serve as engaging presenters, customer service reps, or even entertainers, all powered by AI. A particularly jaw-dropping moment was when he demonstrated instant lip-sync and translation: imagine speaking in English on camera and within seconds having an AI avatar version of yourself fluently speaking Mandarin or Spanish, perfectly lip-synced. This wasn’t sci-fi; it’s powered by Akool’s technology that was also translating sessions live at the event. Jeff emphasized how this opens up global communication – you can reach audiences in any language without the usual localization delays, which garnered audible excitement from the crowd.

Another theme was AI-driven face swap and personalization in video. Jeff discussed how content creators can swap backgrounds, swap faces, or alter video elements on the fly using Akool’s tools. For example, a marketer could instantly rebrand a video with a different actor or a different setting, all through AI magic instead of reshoots. This level of flexibility, he explained, is “redefining content creation” and empowering creators to experiment and scale content like never before. He also cited real-world validation of these technologies – for instance, The Coca-Cola Company recently used Akool’s face-swap and avatar tech to create an immersive branded experience for consumers. Hearing that a global brand has leveraged Akool gave the audience a tangible sense of how industry-ready and impactful our solutions are.

Throughout the keynote, one could feel the energy in the room. Attendees were leaning forward as Jeff painted a vision of digital interaction enriched by real-time AI video. “We are entering an era where any idea can be instantly brought to life on screen,” he noted, highlighting how this changes everything from virtual meetings to entertainment. The key takeaway was that AI is taking video from a static, time-consuming medium to a dynamic, interactive experience. As one attendee remarked on social media during the event, “The future of AI content starts here.” Jeff’s presentation truly made that future feel present. When he wrapped up with a live demo of an audience member appearing as an AI avatar (to delighted gasps and applause), there was a real sense that everyone had just witnessed a glimpse of tomorrow’s technology, today.

Reflections on an Unforgettable Event

Looking back, GenAI Week 2025 was an incredible success for Akool and a milestone for real-time AI in the industry. Our team was thrilled to connect with so many creators, innovators, and AI enthusiasts throughout the week. Whether it was at our booth – where hundreds of attendees stepped into our hologram’s view or tested our video tools – or during the keynote – where Jeff’s message resonated with a global audience – we achieved our goal of demonstrating what Akool is all about. We showed that AI avatars and instant video generation aren’t just flashy demos, but practical technologies ready to solve real business needs and spark creativity.

The feedback and excitement we received were truly inspiring. Many who visited us expressed that they’d “never seen anything like this before.” Industry colleagues described the Akool booth as a glimpse of the future, and our keynote sparked conversations about new collaboration ideas. It’s clear that real-time AI video generation hit home as a game-changer. We also gained valuable insights from attendees – their questions and reactions are helping us envision new features and use cases (if you stopped by and asked about face-swap safety or avatar response time, yes, we’re listening!).

Finally, we want to extend a big thank-you to the GenAI Week organizers for creating such a vibrant conference, and to every person who visited our booth or attended the keynote. Events like this underscore why we at Akool do what we do: to push the envelope of innovation and share it with the community. We left the summit even more excited about the future of AI Video Generation. If GenAI Week 2025 showed us anything, it’s that the era of real-time AI video is already dawning – and Akool is proud to be one of the pioneers lighting the way. We can’t wait to continue this journey and see how you will use these new tools to create, connect, and collaborate.

Stay tuned for the full recording of Jeff Lu’s keynote, which we’ll be posting here soon for those who missed it. Here’s to embracing the future of generative AI – in real time!
