The Importance of UX in the Age of AI
May 6 @ 6:15 pm - 7:45 pm
Our daily lives now involve almost continuous interactions with technologies via their interfaces. Artificial intelligence is changing the way we interact with some technologies: AI lets us talk to our devices naturally, using everyday language and gestures. However, not all interfaces are AI, and just having AI embedded does not ensure productivity, simplicity, and enjoyment for all use cases. Thus, user experience (UX) design is important to ensure our increasingly technology-enabled lives are productive, efficient, and enjoyable. In this presentation, experienced UX designer Erik Summa will share how UX continues to play an important role in making technologies useful and enjoyable, and especially how AI is changing UX and the way we design technologies for the maximum benefit of humans.
