We are thrilled to welcome Jamie Shotton, chief scientist at Wayve, to the SIGGRAPH Asia 2025 keynote stage. Shotton is known around the world for his pioneering work in computer vision and autonomous learning systems — and there is even more to his story.

3 Things You May Not Know About Shotton

He is building self-driving intelligence that learns like people do.
Shotton’s work reaches far beyond traditional autonomy. Rather than rule-based driving systems, Wayve trains AI that learns from experience and adapts to complex, real-world environments — a foundation-model approach designed for mobility.

His research shaped how your body appears in digital space.
Before focusing on autonomous systems, Shotton helped develop human body-tracking technologies at Microsoft’s Mixed Reality and AI Lab. His contributions transformed interactive computing and supported advancements in spatial computing and XR.

He believes creativity, perception, and intelligence are connected.
Shotton views AI as a catalyst for imagination rather than a replacement for human creativity. Expect compelling insights into how perception fuels intelligence — and what this means for the next era of virtual worlds, robotics, and human-machine collaboration.

Why Attend?

If you are interested in computer vision, generative AI, robotics, human-in-the-loop systems, or spatial computing, Shotton’s keynote is a must-see.

Join us at SIGGRAPH Asia 2025 in Hong Kong as we explore how intelligence learns — and how it will shape the future of our digital and physical worlds. Explore the full program schedule.
