Description

Big tech companies need to hide their data. Artificial intelligence has brought the idea of data privacy and trust to the forefront of public thought, often through bad press. As more consumers are becoming aware of how valuable their data is and the extent to which it is shared and monetized by companies, they are demanding much more transparency from the platforms and products they use (one goal of the recent GDPR). This is fast becoming a key aspect in creating competitive products.

Max Gadney and Sabih Ali explore some of the ways designers and product teams are designing systems with transparency, trust, and privacy in mind.

Topics include:

  • Smart cities: A recent project with a major motoring company producing design principles for AI systems that deliver value to all levels of users, including C-level, as well as regulatory needs
  • Health: A one-to-one health app that uses AI to predict well-being needs
  • Designing for trust and transparency principles: A design approach for predicting many possible outcomes rather than absolute truth
