EXPERIENCE THE POWER OF BIG DATA WITH WATCH_DOGS® 2 PREDICTIVE WORLD
Developed in collaboration with the Psychometrics Centre of the University of Cambridge and based on scientific research,
Predictive World processes users’ data to generate accurate predictions of them and their behaviours.
Today, Ubisoft® revealed Predictive World, an online experience that reveals what a powerful, all-seeing algorithm can predict about an individual based on their online footprint, public information and Facebook ‘Likes’.
A World of Data
Every day, we create 2.5 billion gigs of data, from our last purchase online to our likes on social media platforms. Nowadays, most recruiters scrutinise our social networks before even looking at our CV. When we apply for a loan to our bank, its acceptance is assessed depending on our private health data. And in some US cities, the police can apprehend individuals based on algorithms that can predict their criminal potential thanks to data such as age, ethnicity, gender and social background.
The dangers of Big Data and predictive algorithms are themes at the heart of the narrative of Ubisoft’s upcoming open world action-adventure game WATCH_DOGS 2. The hero, Marcus Holloway, is wrongly profiled as a potential criminal by a city-wide operating system collecting & analysing data on every citizen.
When Fiction meets Reality
Predictive World and WATCH_DOGS 2 are strong reminders that in today’s ultra-connected world, the systematic collection and processing of private data on a massive scale marks a new step in an era of rising surveillance and might represent a threat to personal freedom. Similarly to what happens in WATCH_DOGS 2, Predictive World lets users imagine how corporations, governments, or criminals could use their personal data against them, and help players understand the context of the game.
Predictive World has been built based on an algorithm developed by the Psychometrics Centre of the University of Cambridge, using a wide range of verified data sources such as psychological and social media data from over 6 million research participants, and a bespoke infrastructure designed for this project containing 6.4 billion data points. Collecting and processing users’ digital footprint and combining predictions with large amounts of open data, the system is able to make more than 60 predictions about the individual, from personality traits and intelligence to life expectancy and even financial risk propensity.
An interactive innovative experience
This dynamic and adaptable experience makes tangible the relationship between gender and salary, between city location and risk of being a victim of homicide. More importantly, users can interact with the predictions, change outcomes and understand the relationship between the different variables. By providing unexpected insights across many areas of life, Predictive World gives a glimpse of the power of data and how anyone having access to it can build accurate profiles of individuals.
To go even further, VICE released “User Profiled”, a series of documentary videos sponsored by Ubisoft with the purpose of educating and giving an in-depth look at the dangers of Big Data in today’s society. EPISODE #1EPISODE #2
To try Predictive World and see what your digital footprints reveal about you, visit: watchdogs.com/predictiveworld.
WATCH_DOGS 2 will be available worldwide on consoles November 15th 2016 and on Windows PC November 29th 2016. For more information about WATCH_DOGS 2, please visit watchdogs.ubisoft.com.
Good afternoon – something very different, yet very cool to round out your Friday afternoon.
What do you get when you mix the epic adventure of Dishonored 2 with the beats of five famous Dutch DJs? The answer is music that jumps from the shadows and attacks the senses.
Digital Punk, BLOQSHOT, Jordy Dazz, Vato Gonzalez and Zany, in collaboration with Bethesda Benelux, have produced remixes of music from the upcoming videogame, Dishonored 2, and the results are five impressive tracks from the EDM soundscape.
• Digital Punk (Rene de Bruijn) gives the Official Dishonored 2 OST Remix his raw interpretation of the Dishonored universe. “I grew up with 2 things in life. Gaming and music. When I was asked for a remix of Dishonored 2 by Bethesda I couldn't be happier! Super proud of the result!”.
• DJ Zany (Raoul van Grinsven) made an energetic freestyle track of the song Darkness. “This campaign combines the two things I love most: music and games”, said DJ Zany when commenting on the collaboration.
• Vato Gonzalez (Björn Franken) gave Dishonored 2 – Main Theme his characteristic dirty house makeover. “The only thing more satisfying than throwing unsuspecting NPC’s into a wall of light, was to remix the score of Dishonored 2 and throw my audience into a wall of sound.”.
• Upcoming trap DJ, BLOQSHOT (Arjan Terpstra), gave his own twist to the classic score of the game. “As a fulltime nerd I love both the game and its soundtrack. This was a great opportunity to bring different styles and genres together!”
• To get most of the popular EDM styles Jordy Dazz (Jordy van Oostveen) was asked to join. He reworked the compellingDishonored 2 theme song into a progressive techno track. “As a fan of games and scoring-music, it's such a great thing to have worked together with Bethesda doing something creative with both elements.”
Reprise your role as a supernatural assassin in Dishonored 2, the next chapter in the award-winning Dishonored saga by Arkane Studios, set to launch worldwide on November 11, 2016 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Anyone who pre-orders Dishonored 2 will be able to play the game on 10th November, one day before the official worldwide release, and will receive a copy of Dishonored: Definitive Edition.
