Kent Bye (born 1976) is an American podcaster and experiential journalist based in Portland, Oregon. He is most known for his work in virtual reality, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence.[1]
Bye is the founder and host of the Voices of VR podcast, and a keynote speaker, panelist, and moderator at international industry conferences including Games for Change, Silicon Valley Virtual Reality (SVVR), SXSW, and VR NOW.[2][3][4][5]
Voices of VR Podcast
Kent Bye launched Voices of VR in May 2014.[6] The podcast features game developers, technologists, academics, creatives, and enthusiasts in the fields of VR and AR, and currently has hundreds of episodes including: Jaroslav Beck, Jessica Brillhart, Nancy Baker Cahill, Jesse Damiani, Tom Furness, Palmer Luckey, Kevin Mack, Danny O’Brien, Tony Parisi, Nonny de la Peña, Philip Rosedale, Keram Malicki-Sanchez and Adam Sulzdorf-Liszkiewicz.[7]
In 2015, a virtual reality blog called Road to VR started to syndicate all future episodes of the Voices of VR podcast on their website.[8]
As of January 2021, the Voices of VR podcast has released over 973 episodes.[9]
Ethics of XR
Bye is an advocate for discourse around the ethics and moral dilemmas presented by VR and AR.[10]
In March 2019 at Laval Virtual, Bye took part in a think tank called, "Future Dreaming: Designing for New Realities."[11][12] On May 31, 2019, Bye presented a keynote at Augmented World Expo which summarized the ethical implications explored during Laval Virtual and through his interviews with subject experts for Voices of VR.[13] This presentation formed the foundation of what would ultimately become the "XR Ethics Manifesto" that Bye presented on October 18, 2019 at xRS Week from Greenlight Insights.[14][15]
