✦ Registration link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/port-a-game-from-the-quest-store-to-the-apple-visionos-app-store-tickets-841403248767?aff=meetup Apple’s Vision Pro launched on February 2, and reviews are raving! As you’d expect, the VisionPro has launched with many apps and games to try, and some of them have already been successful and available on the Quest Store before. There's only 2 (two) official Quest Store games that managed to launch on the Apple VisionPro on day one, one of them being Puzzling Places! 🧩 In this Open Lecture, we will hear from Daniel from Puzzling Places, and how he and his team were able to quickly launch and port the successful Quest Store Game to the Apple VisionPro! Daniel will share his and his team's very challenging journey and what they learned while recreating their Unreal game in Unity, to make it ready for the launch day of Apple's VisionPro. Lecture Overview & Takeaways In this session, you will learn:
After the Open Lecture, we’re hosting an AMA session. Please be prepared and have your questions to Daniel ready :) He’ll also be joined by an engineer from his team to make sure to be able to answer all Puzzling Places and Apple Vision Pro related questions. The session concludes with an Open Round Table with Apple VisionPro Thought Leaders with
Speakers Daniel Sproll is a trained cognitive scientist turned founder, has been deeply involved in the virtual reality (VR) revolution for over a decade. His career trajectory spans from researching human navigational behavior in VR to pioneering early VR interaction design as a UX designer.

Send us a text Want to be featured as a guest on Making Data Simple? Reach out to us at [[email protected]] and tell us why you should be next. Abstract Hosted by Al Martin, VP, IBM Expert Services Delivery, Making Data Simple provides the latest thinking on big data, A.I., and the implications for the enterprise from a range of experts. This week on Making Data Simple, we have Alex Watson. Alex was previously a GM at AWS and is currently a Co-Founder at Gretel.ai. Gretel is a privacy startup that enables developers, researchers, and scientists to quickly create safe versions of data for use in pre-production environments and machine learning workloads, which are shareable across teams and organizations. These tools address head-on the massive data privacy bottleneck--which has stifled innovation across multiple industries for years—by equipping builders everywhere with the ability to create quality datasets that scale. In short, synthetic data levels the playing field for everyone. This democratization of data will foster competition, scientific discoveries, and the inventions that will drive the next revolution of our data economy. The company recently closed their series-A funding, led by Greylock, for another $12 million and brought Jason Warner, the current CTO for GitHub, on as an investor. Gretel also launched its latest public beta, Beta2, which offers privacy engineering as a service for everyone, not just developers. Show Notes 2:03 – Alex’s background 4:36 – What time frame was Harvest AI? 7:14 – How does NLP play into Harvest AI? 10:50 – How can we not have enough knowledge? 14:08 – Does the tech exist today for security? 18:14 – Privacy issues 20:42 – What does Gretel stand for? 27:42 – Do you increase the opportunity for bias? 31:18 – Where is the sweet spot for Gretel? 33:30 – When do synthetic not work? 37:42 – What is practical privacy?
