David Bausola, Philter Phactory
To most people, the social web is a place to share content and communicate with friends. But to David Bausola, a creative technologist and CEO of digital agency Philter Phactory, it’s a virtual world complete with the resources needed for artificial intelligence. Bausola has created Weavrs, a system that manufactures artificial beings that exist within this social part of the internet. “The easiest way to describe what we make is ‘bots’ - artificial persons that exist on the pretend layer on the web,” says Bausola, “that space where people share stuff and participate in web 2.0.” If this all sounds a bit sci-fi, then that’s because Bausola’s original inspiration came from Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner film. “When we started this I had a huge interest in the film Blade Runner,” says Bausola, “to the point that I’d had so many conversations about robots and android and the way that those characters were designed.”
