#ChatWithMSFTResearch . Signing off from live-tweeting! I will continue the conversation offline - . Hoping all stay well and healthy!.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 6/? - There are many guidelines there. - provides a great resource for UX designers to think about the right questions to ask during designs.

Join millions who have switched to Grok.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 5/? As UX practitioner we need to understand why working with ML/AI is different than working with past tools/materials/technologies. Where do our traditional design principles break? Where do they hold?.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 4/? - If I were to pick just one thing, I would say that as UX practitioners we need to educate ourselves about what AI/ML "interfaces" - what they can do, what inputs it needs, and the kind of outputs it provides.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch .3/? - It is a perspectives issue - As UX designers, are we using AI as a material, a tool, or a medium? Depending on the answer, one needs to learn/know different things.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 2/? It is a literacy issue - What does one need to know to effectively communicate with my co-collaborators? Do we speak the same language, use the same terms?.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 1/? - What resources and tools should be in any UX designer’s toolkit for working on HCAI? . Working on HCAI should not be a solitary task. It is best done in concert with AI, Data, Social Sciences, Law, etc. Specialists.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 4/? - It then follows that a significant part of research in AI/ML *has* to be Human-Centered.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 3/? - As researchers like Amershi et al have articulated, ML/AI is a “people problem”: People are involved at every stage of the ML pipeline, from problem definition to data collection, labeling, system evaluation, and usage.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 2/? - When we talk about intelligent systems, or behavior, we are talking about systems that have human-like behavior. It is not only about intelligence as a human metric. .

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . 1/? - HCAI’s methods stem (by definition) from HC practices, and as such, share a great deal with HCD. There is a fantastic opportunity for the research methods in AI/ML to be more HC.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . How do the activities in HCAI compare with the activities in other disciplines (AI, Design)? To make this question tractable, it makes sense to discuss goals, contributions, methods, and metrics. Let's try!.

#ChatWithMSFTResearch . Btw, this is me :) I will be online for the next hour or so. Feel free to send questions to me or my fantastic colleagues!

#ChatWithMSFTResearch #HCML #HCAI. What is HCAI? My answer builds from the way Rebecca Fiebrink et al articulated Human-Centered Machine Learning, and talk about examining (and developing) AI/ML (technology) from a human-centered perspective. What is your definition?.

This is my first live twitter event as well. not sure how will it go, but lets do this!.

Have questions about HCML/AI? We are now live answering them (the best we can) at #ChatWithMSFTResearch.
