For development experimentation we are working w/ collective intelligence scenarios in Minecraft
Regarding practical real-world applications, we are currently using the existing "legacy" OpenCog as a key ingredient in the AI architecture for the Grace humanoid robot aimed at eldercare applications (See awakening.health). (Along with some neural language and vision models...). So once Hyperon is ready we will swap out the old OpenCog for the new in Grace's back end. Via the Sophia Collective / SophiaDAO initiative we will also work w/ Hanson Robotics to put this same architecture in Sophia and their other human-scale robots, once it's first rolled out in Grace...
