Designing with and for Artificial Intelligence
This video is featured in the Josh's test playlist playlist.
Summary
- AI as a product design material – AI enables solutions that are smarter, faster and can answer questions well beyond human capability alone, but you must deploy them effectively and responsibly to be successful.
- AI designing the product for you – AI generation of competent oil paintings and music based solely on a set of input requirements has been repeatedly demonstrated in the past decade. Emerging AIs can design entire digital user experiences, code them, and deploy to the cloud with one button click.
Key Insights
-
•
AI in UX splits into using AI as a design material versus AI augmenting or replacing designers in creative processes.
-
•
Soft AI, which uses structured data and domain rules, is more explainable and suitable for critical applications like genomics than hard AI.
-
•
Trust and perceived credibility in AI-driven medical systems depend heavily on both explainability and interface design quality.
-
•
The genomics AI case analyzes massive, changing DNA variant data impossible for humans alone to process in real time.
-
•
Ben Schneiderman’s classification of AI as super tools or teammates helps frame AI’s role in augmenting human work.
-
•
Clean Software’s AI builds entire UX workflows and code through semantic interaction models, speeding up app development for enterprises.
-
•
Generative AI UX designs face risks like sameness and depend heavily on accurate, high-quality input data to avoid creating useless outputs.
-
•
AI can accelerate UX exploration by generating multiple alternatives quickly, supporting iterative design and decision-making.
-
