Co-presence
Online co-presence is a fundamental dimension of immersive experiences, as far as their social dimension is concerned. It results from the synchronous sharing of a spatialised reality between several people, and gives "substance" to the world and the experience that are enjoyed collectively.

Consequently, the prospect of wanting to "populate" metaverse environments with nonplayer characters (NPCs) or "bots" (short for robots) in order to create the illusion among users that they are not alone, thanks to the development of AI for example, is a short-sighted and somewhat uninspiring perspective, but one that is undoubtedly reassuring for investors.

We wish you a good immersion in the interactive and narrative building blocks of Renaissance Numérique’s report “Governing the Metaverse and tomorrow’s internet”!
