Final Presentation

The format of your final presentation is up to you, but it should not exceed 10 minutes (followed by up to 5 minutes of clarifying questions or audience-driven demonstration).

Your presentation will be evaluated by three equally weighted criteria scored on a 1-5 star basis (5 is best). For those doing the math, that's 2.33 points per star. 

- Impact: How interesting or potentially impactful is this project idea? What potential does this project have to advance the conversation around what it means to do AI-based design?

- Achievement: How much technical progress was made on the project idea? If the idea includes a high-impact big picture and a clearly delimited useful first step, then a project that fully delivers that first step should be considered to have good achievement.

- Clarity: How well can one follow the idea, execution, and presentation of the project? How direct and persuasive were the examples used?

Include some information about your playtests (see Technical Report for details) and what you've learned about your project from these tests.

Your presentation will be more convincing if you include a short demo of what you've built. Part of the art of demoing is to show off the project in such a way it most reveals its potential. 

If your project has drifted over the course of the proposal and progress presentations, that's okay. Tell the most exciting story you can even if it contradicts details we heard in the past.

Please practice your presentation ahead of time and make sure you can show everything you need within 10 minutes.
