"The biggest thing that I've seen... is actually not so much about how human-like Ai-Da is, but how robotic we are. The algorithms that run our systems..." @AidanMeller about art from robots. Percepts precede precepts, art precedes science
A robot artist called Ai-Da is due to present at a Communications and Digital Committee in the House of Lords. Ai-Da will speak on the subject of 'A Creative Future,’ alongside her developer Aidan Meller.

More than once, inheriting a team, I was told I needed to manage out known underperformers.
Every time, what I saw was that the designers were capable, talented. But they were working in a suboptimal context.
Improving the environment improved the work.

Love this combination of UX research and design methods: "bodystorming" a conceptual design in VR with a pentad of parameters; all remote. dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3…

Too bad "observe your users" doesn't end in ...spection. Seriously, this is important advice.

Don't think of accessibility as "testing" -- think of it more as a series of activities... introspection, inspection, retrospection... probably some other spections as well.

I converted Tesla’s safety report numbers…
From:
miles between collisions
(where more miles per accident is better)
To:
number of traffic accidents per thousand drivers per year
(where fewer accidents is better) 👀
I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be in a Tesla.
