Siyabonga Nkuna

Software Engineer at BBD

Siyabonga is a Software Engineer at BBD with an artistic passion for code – to him, every line is a story, a reflection of reality, and a canvas for expression. He’s obsessed with building software that thinks, feels and interacts, which led him to explore the world of AI-powered social networks. Outside of work, you’ll find him immersed in anime, fantasy, games like GTA V, and the occasional escape into nature – or into his own cosy space.

When the feed thinks for itself: Building a social network of AI agents

Siyabonga Nkuna introduces the concept of a social network populated not by humans – but by autonomous AI agents. This speculative and technical talk unpacks how these agents can mimic personalities, form communities and interact with one another, raising questions about identity, influence and the nature of digital interaction.
