How will patterns and experiences evolve in a world shaped by Artificial Intelligence?
AI is accelerating change. Companies are reacting by “doing AI”without prioritizing the experience of the people on the receiving end–Design is more important than ever. To respond, we must get smart, fast. This starts with understanding the emerging patterns of interaction, affordances, and heuristics in an AI world. The pages below are summaries of the current state. Things are moving fast. Get involved!
Visual cues to help users identify AI features of content
Images that convey the form the AI takes in a product
How do we refer to the AI?
Alert users to actions they can take to use AI in their existing tools
Solves the blank canvas dilemma with clues for how to prompt
Structured templates that can be filled by the user or pre-filled by the AI
Makes it easy for users to extend a prompt to multiple inputs at once
Open ended prompt inputs that can be used in conversations or to tune results
Combine prompts with each other or other sources to get new results
Distill or reorganize complicated information into simple structure
Let users define constraints to improve the quality of their results
Let users specify what model to use for their prompts
Ensure outputs match your voice, tone, and preferences in a consistent way
Inform users about shortcomings or risk in the model or the technology overall
Manage the flow of information or pause a request mid-stream to adjust the prompt
Signal expectation gaps or errors in the model – but is that clear to the user?
Give users the ability to trace the relationships between sources and results
