Design in the Era of the Algorithm

Just as mobile defined the last decade of digital products, machine learning is set to define the next. In this talk from push.conference 2018, Josh Clark, author of Tapworthy, shows how to use machine-generated content, insight and interaction as design material in everyday work.

He explains how to refit familiar design and UX processes to work with the grain of the algorithm, helping machines solve real problems without creating new ones. The talk explores technologies and practical techniques you can use today, not only to make existing products better but to imagine surprising new services. The challenges and opportunities of machine learning are many, and Josh argues for handling this powerful design material with care and respect.
