Session Description, Human-Machine Love Affair


We're in a world where the lines are blurred between human and machine intelligence, one where we need to build a harmonious relationship through experience.


In his talk we'll explore how Humans and AI can work together as partners and learn to love one another. We'll discover how human-centred design principles can be used to craft AI systems that anticipate our context, needs, wants and enhance our capabilities while still respecting our privacy and autonomy. We'll also look at the invisible conversations between AI and digital systems, and how we can make this a more seamless journey.


You'll learn about the real-world use cases and frameworks that can help you craft both your human to AI and AI to machine interactions to provide a loveable user experience for all parties.


Symbiotic Futures is an exploration of trust, shared experience and even love, in the next era of digital interactions.
