Intelligence as a Material
What if intelligence—artificial or human—wasn’t just a concept but something you could shape, mold, and experiment with, like clay? In this keynote, Matteo Loglio dives into his work with creative studio oio, where intelligence isn’t just a buzzword; it’s part of the design toolkit.
Sharing behind-the-scenes stories from projects for brands like YouTube, Spotify, Google, and IKEA, Matteo reveals how blending smarts (human or otherwise) with design can lead to surprisingly practical and often delightfully unexpected outcomes. From interfaces that adapt to users to experiences that spark real emotion, this talk unpacks how intelligence can turn ideas into innovations—and maybe even solutions to problems you didn’t know you had.
Come for the projects, stay for the wit, and leave with a fresh perspective on how design and technology can play nice—and occasionally throw a curveball.
