Summary

At the AI Engineer World's Fair, Temporal showcased an innovative and engaging booth featuring a massive 8-foot USB-C keyboard and holographic fan display, leveraging the Temporal Workflow for a unique Wordle game experience. The giant keyboard, conceptualized by Kristin Hillary and physically built by WhiteClouds, became a central attraction, as its interactive design required attendees to use it directly, revealing real-time Temporal Workflow history on a holographic fan. This setup highlighted how Temporal's durable Workflow architecture managed the game's state seamlessly, even accommodating live updates and user errors during the event. The booth demonstrated how a robust, central Workflow could enable flexible, engaging experiences while maintaining system integrity, with Temporal's architecture serving as the backbone for both the game and the surrounding interactive elements. Despite the logistical challenges, the project successfully illustrated Temporal's capabilities in handling long-running application states, even amidst the unusual constraints of a conference setting.
