Instrumental Creatures

Instrumental Creatures Project team: Teaching support - Elad Madan; Drawing and graphics - Ivan Kobrin and Adi Amital; Content, texts, character and flow specification - Mia Miller and Chen Libman; Backend design and technical operations - Emanuel Schreibman. A community needs shared assets to be considered cooperative, but these can create frictions and challenges, exhausting bureaucracies and regulations, and sometimes even divisions. Within the laboratory framework, we designed a system of AI agents that mediates existing cooperative systems and introduces imagination and interest to the routine and mundane dimensions. The system consists of three characters, each with a specific role: the fairy collects data and feelings from users, the leprechaun distributes secret missions, and the dragon stores data and displays their effect on its mood, which reflects the community's status in real time. The project offers a playful way to collaborate through artificial intelligence and the possibility of agents that don't seek to replace humans but rather to strengthen human connections.
