Today we welcome Gary Gattis, a former video game CEO and technology executive who now helps parents, schools, and students understand the hidden mechanics behind games, feeds, social media, AI, and digital attention. His current work, The Invisible Playground, explores how hidden screen systems shape childhood, attention, belonging, identity, and agency."
His career includes several distinct phases:
- Gaming: He helped develop major online games early in his career and later co-founded SpaceTime Studios, known for mobile MMORPGs. The gaming industry provided experience in large-scale simulations, networking, and AI-driven virtual environments.
- Artificial Intelligence: As CEO of Hypergiant Galactic Systems, he shifted toward applying AI to real-world problems rather than entertainment.
- Satellites and Space: His work has centered on using AI to improve satellite operations, automate space systems, enhance space situational awareness, and modernize satellite infrastructure.
- Defense and Military Simulation: His interests align with a growing defense trend of combining AI with wargaming, digital twins, and operational simulations to
