“Machines might be perfectly consistent in capturing what’s happening—but real value is created when we apply the lens of human-centered design.” @ideo design director @frrmack speaks to the importance of humanizing endeavors in #augmentedintelligence. ideo.to/d4ai

"Taking a human-centered approach to building relationships between AI and humans compels us to meet humans on their terms." @justinmassa explains why AI must earn our trust, rather than ask for it: ideo.to/bREroD via @qz

We teach our machines every day: Voice assistants learn how to talk to us based on what we say to them, and navigation apps guide us based on the routes we take. But what if we could teach our machines more actively? Could AI learn what's important to us? ideo.to/euNoxP

The application for these "fake images" and mathematical manipulation is an augmentation of a creators' tools. In same way Photoshop can offload work from the creator allowing them to focus on creating. These tools could allow new types of creation. -Irmak Sirer #ttidesign

Yessss! User-driven goals + personalized calibration = ML as augmentation. So much win when AI is treated like a tool instead of a product. xitter.cf/LearnWithOz/status/970…

It qualitatively changes the questions we can ask. One basic example:
neuron 426 fired ~= useless
[floppy ear] fired = very interesting!
“Instead of data science that’s narrowly focused on statistical models or data visualizations, a design-thinking approach recognizes data scientists as creative problem solvers,” —@jwettersten and @deanmalmgren, via @HarvardBiz: ideo.to/HUmEN6
