Meet DIGIBABY / 認識 DIGIBABY

In 2014, DigiBaby was born! As the "newborn" of the Asian Federation of Advertising Associations (AFAA), he carries the prestigious lineage of traditional advertising while absorbing cutting-edge digital elements—a perfect fusion of technology and humanity. Like an infant, DigiBaby is constantly growing and self-evolving, driven by a creative heart that never changes!

Having journeyed through the curious exploration of 2016, the AI experiences of 2018, the pandemic-driven transformation of 2020, the Web3 virtual-real convergence of 2022, and the AI-centered integration of 2024, DigiBaby now enters the new era of "Heartificial" in 2026.

Amid the wave of Agentic AI, he possesses not only immense computational power but also a warm heart filled with love. Symbolizing the ultimate resonance between technology and humanity, DigiBaby uses "Heart-Intelligent" wisdom to lead us in combining AI efficiency with a return to a new era of human warmth.

Introduction DIGIASIA TAIPEI / DIGIASIA TAIPEI介紹

Annual Theme: "Heartificial Intelligent Marketing" Creating Emotions Beyond Algorithms Through Human Warmth.

As the world confronts the rapid surge of AI technology, DigiAsia and its global partners reflect on a fundamental question: What is the true value of humanity in an AI-accelerated marketing industry? DigiAsia introduces the concept of Heart + Artificial = Heartificial, striving for the perfect synthesis of Artificial Intelligence and human emotion (Heart). In an era where Agentic AI governs efficiency and automation, we advocate for the return to "Human-Centric Intelligence Marketing," rediscovering the soul and original purpose amidst the AI tide.

Humans and AI do not stand in opposition; they exist in a state of symbiosis and mutual empowerment. While AI manages complex rational computations, humans are granted the freedom to focus on Brand Love—the element that truly moves hearts. 2026 marks a pivotal starting point for the "AI × Humanity" co-creation era in the Asian marketing industry. As the host city, Taipei is committed to presenting fresh perspectives: rather than blindly chasing technology, we will deeply explore how technology and humanity coexist through three key dimensions: Creativity, Empathy, and Curiosity.
