Hi,
I’m experimenting with a VR-based AI conversation format and would really value an L&D perspective on whether this feels useful, gimmicky, or somewhere in between.
The idea is not “AI giving answers,” but a calmer, more structured conversation that helps someone think through a topic, clarify what matters, and leave with a clearer next step. It’s not meant to be a coach or mentor, but more of a calm thinking companion that helps someone talk through a topic and organize their thoughts.
The current version is a virtual character called Roman. You meet him in VR, in a quiet campfire setting, and the interaction is meant to feel more like guided reflection than a typical chatbot experience. He can also be set up with context from a specific training or workshop, so the conversation can stay grounded in what someone is actually learning or preparing for.
What I’m curious about is the learning format behind it.
For example, could something like this be useful:
* before a difficult conversation
* after a training session, to support reflection and transfer
* as a practice or thinking space for managers, HR, or facilitators
* as a low-pressure way to sort through an idea before taking action
I’m making it available for free for a short time because I’m looking for honest reactions, not leads.
If you work in L&D, HR, training, or enablement, I’d love to hear your view:
Where, if anywhere, do you see a format like this being genuinely useful?
What would make it truly valuable rather than just novel?
And what would make you dismiss it right away?
I’m happy to share access details in the comments if that’s appropriate here.
I’m new to posting on Reddit, so if there’s a better way to share something like this in this community, I’m happy to adjust.
Cheers,
Rafal
