LukePMy guess it's because Embergen is getting more and more popularity, and clouds are an important part of VFX, and as far as I am concerned the UI is not bad in Houdini, I actually kind of like it!
Why clouds lol?
I was more interested in redone viewport, dynamics enhancement, redone cops.

kodraWell nothing was mentioned yet, only thing you can see is names of presentations, not the full list of features. I assume that even if there was any AI assisted vex it wouldn't take the whole presentation to tell you you can type a prompt and get a questionable code back
It's a little bit surprising no AI mentioned.
I know AI is not ready to replace the VFX workflow (yet?), but I kinda expected a finetuned GPT model that can write VEX better than ChatGPT.

"Note: On October 25th, SideFX is holding a Houdini 20 Keynote. This talk is at capacity but a few days after the event, SideFX will post a video recording for the whole community. As we approach these events, be sure to keep an eye out for the Houdini 20 Sneak Peek! Lots of great news on the horizon!"
What went wrong during the previous live announcement events? As far as I remember, they went flawlessly.

For our product launches SideFX typically goes to an event space where we record the presentation and spend a couple of days cutting the footage together - then we do a Youtube Live event so that the wider community can watch together and we can have SideFX staff there to answer questions. We have been doing this two stage launch for a number of years now.

Sounds good Rob. Can’t wait to see what you guys have done in the last 1-2 years.
Any chance you could give us a hint on when the sneak peak might be available? I’ve been literally checking the website a few times a day :-)
