This is pretty clearly a hoax. The slides are text-heavy and expository to an unrealistic extent (for a powerpoint anyway) and the language is closer to amateur dystopian sci-fi than a technical presentation.

That said, it is a nice encapsulation of how "A.I." may come to be viewed as a surveillance, advertising and monetization tool.

I feel there's other things that identify it as a possible hoax - the screenshots at the start, for instance, seem unfinished - but I've dealt with many powerpoint presentations over the years like this - way too many words for an overhead screen, but these sorts of presentations get shared around quite a bit with the intention of being just read on the computer screen..

Still the things explained into this presentation could be potentially true and really used. They are not too much difficult to implement in a real daily basis case. There is a lot of gaming publishers that are focusing on patenting AI algorithm to be used in modern games.

Correct. I read the slides as more of a draft technology proposal rather than a launch presentation for the product.
