We are surrounded by new AI-powered devices, many of which seem to have been designed without much thought given to their impact on society.
This episode of Utilizing AI features Olivier Blanchard and Guy Currier of The Futurum Group discussing the way companies are bringing AI to market. Product design seems to have gone off course, with new features being designed to take advantage of technical capabilities rather than user needs.
Given that we are in the early stages of the AI rollout, it might seem to be a good idea to experiment with a wide variety of features. But these can also damage the reputation of the companies that roll out poorly-defined capabilities. On the flip-side, such features could bring incredible value to the consumer and the producer if they serve a real need.
This and more on Utilizing AI, part of Futurum Media and the Futurum Podcast Network.
