Exploring the utility of large language models in autonomous driving: Can they be trusted for self-driving cars, and what are the key challenges?
I have noticed that almost every startup in almost every industry is claiming “a revolutionary AI or blockchain breakthrough.” [Often both.] More recently I’m flabbergasted to see a similar fad in the growing number of self-proclaimed Tech and AI ethicists. We apparently have an exponential proliferation of what someone called “ethics natives” such as angel […]

By Silvia Podesta In February 2024, Fast Company [1] reported on the rise of conversational AI search engines. Large language models (LLM) power these tools, which can answer users’ questions by retrieving and summarizing information from the Internet. Since the rise of generative AI, several conversational AI search applications have cropped up online. Academic and scientific research is spearheading a wave of experimentation in this field. [2] Frenzied enthusiasm exists around what seems to be
By Magnus Eriksen In the span of just a few years, mobile devices have gone from being useful gadgets to essential lifelines. They seamlessly bridge the gap between the physical and digital realms, making information and services readily accessible to their users at all times. And yet, our appreciation of this convenience often overlooks a crucial aspect of the user experience: mobile accessibility. It’s vital to understand that designing for mobile isn’t just about aesthetics or functionality;
By Jonathan Walter and Amber Westlund In Part 1 of this series, we defined inclusive design and acknowledged its ever-growing impact, including on industrial automation. We then described inclusive design challenges in industrial automation and previewed how we solve them. Now, in Part 2, we’ll delve more deeply into a few of these design solutions, focusing on the following efforts: considering diverse human factors in designing hardware evolving our terminology to be more inclusive weaving acc
By Danika Kimball In the world of ecommerce, creating a seamless, highly engaging user experience is paramount. One thing that can significantly enhance the user experience is user-generated content (UGC). UGC encompasses a wide range of content, including customer reviews, photos, videos, and social-media interactions, all of which can transform the way users interact with an online store. In this article, I’ll explore how ecommerce companies can harness UGC to create more captivating and trust
By Pratik Joglekar Creating a collaborative, inclusive atmosphere on a Design team is essential to promoting psychological safety and the mental well-being of all team members. This requires fostering open communication and mutual respect, while developing a harmonious, supportive ambiance that encourages creativity and originality. Cultivating a safe space in which colleagues can freely share their ideas and perspectives and take risks requires offering constructive criticism in a nonjudgmental

I offer a single bit of advice to friends and family when they become new parents: When you start to think that you’ve got everything figured out, everything will change. Just as you start to get the hang of feedings, diapers, and regular naps, it’s time for solid food, potty training, and overnight sleeping. When you figure those out, it’s time for preschool and rare naps. The cycle goes on and on. The same applies for those of us working in design and development these days. Having worked on t

This is advice I’ve been giving to people for years, and […]

If I ask myself a question like "I'd like to buy an SD card; who do I trust to sell me a real SD card and not some fake, Amazon or my local Best Buy?", of course the answer is that I trust my local Best Buy 1 more than Amazon, which is notorious for selling counterfeit SD cards. And if I ask who do I trust more, my local reputable electronics shop (Memory Express, B&H Photo, etc.), I trust my local reputable electr

eBay's Lauren Wilcox named 2023 ACM Distinguished Member for contributions to responsible AI and human-centered computing.
In reading Joe Dolson’s recent piece on the intersection of AI and accessibility , I absolutely appreciated the skepticism that he has for AI in general as well as for the ways that many have been using it. In fact, I’m very skeptical of AI myself, despite my role at Microsoft as an accessibility innovation strategist who helps run the AI for Accessibility grant program. As with any tool, AI can be used in very constructive, inclusive, and accessible ways; and it can also be used in destructive,
On large platforms, it's impossible to have policies on things like moderation, spam, fraud, and sexual content that people agree on. David Turner made a simple game to illustrate how difficult this is even in a trivial case, No Vehicles in the Park . If you haven't played it yet, I recommend playing it now before continuing to read this document. The idea behind the site is that it's very difficult to get people to agree on what moderation
