"You might have watched the Black Mirror episode where (spoiler alert) pop star Ashley O — played by Miley Cirus — is “recreated” in the form of an euphoric doll-speaker and, later, when she’s kept in a coma, in the form of a hologram performing songs extracted from her brain waves."
The episode makes us wonder: can artificial constructions of a person represent their real personality at all — despite them having the same looks and mannerism. Can artificial constructs be created without the real person’s consent.

When you are 'high' on technology, (which, most of us are), you forget to talk to real people, with their unpredictable quirky ways.
Instigating Conversation:

That is the reason why you are spending bunch lead of money and that is exactly the reason why your attendees are coming to visit you.
You see, in person, we have access to the messages carried in the face, the voice, and the body. You listen intently to another person and expect that he or she is listening to you; where a discussion can go off on a tangent and circle back; where something unexpected can be discovered about a person or an idea. Online, we settle for simpler fare: We feel our power, because, we get our efficiency and our chance to edit, and we get the luxury to ponder on the questions that a return email can answer.

When it comes to vendor events, your company only has a small window of time to bring in potential customers and wow them. The staffers at your booth are your first line at these events, therefore success is dependent on their behavior during the event. Even the most carefully chosen booth staffers can end up hurting your event, and then, it’s time to say goodbye.
The reasoning is simple: if your booth staffers don’t show up, you have a few products on a table and nothing else. The key to success in a vendor event is the interaction and lead generation from the visitors to your booth, and without a staffer, that can’t happen. Beyond the initial worry that you’ll miss valuable interaction with potential customers if no one is staffing your booth, lateness or a failure to show up may indicate a fundamental problem with your booth staffer. Chronic lateness could be a sign of underlying social anxiety or lack of confidence. Individuals staffing your booth should be confident and outgoing, as well as punctual.

Because,
“It takes something more than intelligence to act intelligently.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky
Having thus said, today we are on a mission to make your booth intelligent. Needless to say, your first order of the day is to invest on developing the "emotional intelligence" of your people who will be staffing your booth. Give them lessons on intelligence — train them on the concept to "hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function."
A word of caution: Anything that can be replicated will be replicated and will have a price that will tend towards zero.
