What happens when design meets the AI revolution? In the latest episode of Boz to the Future, Meta CTO Andrew "Boz" Bosworth sits down with Figma Co-Founder and CEO Dylan Field, the visionary who started Figma at just 19 years old and transformed how millions of product builders create today.

Boz and Dylan dive deep into the intersection of technology and creativity, from the early days when designers were scarce to today's collaborative, cloud-based workflows. They talk about the imminent paradigm shift in interfaces and what comes after text prompting. They discuss what stays evergreen despite rapid technological change, and why the pursuit of craft remains fundamentally human.

Plus, don't miss the speed round where Dylan weighs in on everything from dark mode to the eternal question: which Thanksgiving side reigns supreme?

Whether you're a designer, builder, or just curious about the future of human creativity in an AI-powered world, this conversation will challenge how you think about the tools we use to bring ideas to life.

In this episode of Boz To The Future, Meta CTO and Head of Reality Labs and host Andrew "Boz" Bosworth is joined by Lucasfilm and Industrial Light & Magic CTO Francois Chardavoine. 

They discuss how technology is transforming the entertainment industry and creating new opportunities for creators. Francois, with 20 years of experience in immersive storytelling, highlights how the history of film is essentially a history of technology, and how each technological advancement, from early visual effects to recent developments in AI, has changed storytelling. 

They explore the frontiers of interactive and immersive experiences, touching on projects like Star Wars: Beyond Victory, and discuss the "undervalued" art form of video games. 

Francois believes traditional storytelling will continue to evolve with technology, making narratives more accessible and diverse. Don’t miss the quickfire round where Chardavoine names his picks for the pinnacle of visual effects in movies.

In the latest episode of Boz To The Future, Meta CTO, Head of Reality Labs, and host Andrew “Boz” Bosworth talks to the legendary film-maker, explorer, and inventor James Cameron. 

James Cameron is best known for writing, directing, and producing critically acclaimed blockbusters like “The Abyss,” “Titanic,” “True Lies,” “Aliens,” and “The Terminator” and “Avatar” franchises. Beyond producing some of the most iconic science fiction films of all time, he is also an inventor and explorer, having built a marine robotics platform that enabled him to go into the depths of the Mariana Trench, and pioneered some of the groundbreaking visual effects that have advanced filmmaking techniques. 

Together, Boz and James cover the future of 3D entertainment, the promise of generative AI, and how these technologies could enhance filmmaking and creativity.

Welcome back for another episode with guest Alex Himel, Meta’s VP of Wearables. 

Alex’s team works on some of the industry’s hardest technical problems, all in the service of helping to build the next computing platform. Like Boz, he’s a tenured leader at Meta, having filled numerous leadership roles across the business in his 15+ years at the company. 

Boz and Alex cover a range of topics, including wearables, augmented reality, and how AI is accelerating and improving the kinds of experiences embedded in Ray-Ban Meta glasses and future products. They go deep on Orion and the positive reception it’s received since Mark Zuckerberg announced it at Connect. 

Stay for the deep dive on Orion, and don't miss the the sandwich talk. Alex and Boz get into what makes a great sandwich, where tomatoes really go, and which bread is superior.

In today’s episode, Boz is joined by StatusPRO Founders Andrew “Hawk” Hawkins and Troy Jones. 

StatusPRO, the company behind the immensely popular game NFL PRO ERA, was founded by former athletes Hawkins and Jones. They leveraged their experience by developing Pre Game Prep, a training product for NFL club coaches and players where they signed the Baltimore Ravens as their first client. They then moved on to develop NFL PRO ERA which is the first NFL- and NFLPA-licensed football simulation game. 

Together, Hawkins, Jones, and Bosworth go deep on immersive sports and technology, talking about the massive potential of mixed reality to bring a unique, “only in MR” experience to sports fans where they can really feel what it’s like to be an offensive or defensive player for their favorite teams. 

They talk about the nuances between building a training sim and a game for consumers, how AI will transform gameplay, and how the lessons from playing team sports have transformed their approach to leadership and managing teams, as well as Hawkins’s fearless predictions for the NFL’s 105th season.

In today’s episode, Boz is joined by internationally renowned media artist and director Refik Anadol.

Anadol is a pioneer in the aesthetics of data and machine intelligence. He’s been creating with algorithms since 2008, with projection mapping on an architectural scale since 2010, and in virtual reality since the days of the first Oculus developer kit in 2013. His work locates creativity at the intersection of humans and machines and uses the massive datasets around us as his primary material, with the neural network of a computerized mind as a collaborator. Giving people radical visualizations of collective, digitized memories, his groundbreaking interpretations of data have garnered numerous awards. Millions of people have been drawn to his exhibits that generate new forms in real time.

In today’s episode, our host, Meta CTO and Head of Reality Labs Andrew “Boz” Bosworth, is joined by our very own Reality Labs Research Chief Scientist Michael Abrash.

They cover a range of topics, from the progress Reality Labs Research has made through a decade of exploring and prototyping novel ideas, to the technologies it’s brought to Meta’s products in-market, like hand tracking, pancake lenses, and spatial audio. They take a look back at some of the biggest developments of the last 10 years—including Touch controllers and inside-out tracking—and look ahead to the next decade on the horizon. 

They discuss the difficult but exciting challenges that lie ahead in building the next generation of computing devices, including full AR glasses with an immersive display. There’s a need to work within compute, power, thermal, and weight constraints, all while pioneering and miniaturizing new technologies to fit in a socially acceptable form factor.
