The Importance of Learning How to Design for AI

Introduction
AI, or artificial intelligence, is changing the way we interact with technology. From
smart assistants to personalised recommendations, AI is making user experiences
more engaging and intuitive. Learning how to design for AI is essential for staying
relevant and improving user satisfaction.

Improving User Interaction

AI helps create personalised and efficient user experiences. For example, Netflix
uses AI to recommend films and TV shows based on your viewing history. As a
designer, understanding how to tailor these interactions can make the user
experience more enjoyable.

Staying Competitive
The tech world is always evolving. Knowing how to design for AI keeps you ahead of
the curve. Companies are looking for designers who can work with AI to create
innovative products. By learning these skills, you become more valuable in the job
market.

Why Designing for AI is Different Than Designing
for Non-AI Products

Designing for AI is not the same as designing for regular products. AI products are
dynamic and need special considerations to work well.

Data Dependency
AI relies heavily on data. Designers must think about how data is collected and
used, as well as be a part of this process. For instance, fitness trackers collect data
on your activity to provide health insights. Designing clear and accessible data
displays is crucial.

User Trust and Ethics

Building trust in AI is very important. Users need to understand how AI makes
decisions. For example, Google Maps uses AI to suggest routes, and it explains why
one route is faster. Being transparent helps users trust the technology.

Unpredictability
AI systems learn and evolve, which can lead to unexpected behaviours. Designers
need to prepare for this. For example, a chatbot might not always understand user
questions, so it should have a way to handle misunderstandings gracefully.

3. What You Need to Know About AI to Design for AI

To design for AI, you need to understand some basic concepts about how AI works.
This will help you create better designs.

Basic AI Concepts

AI includes technologies like machine learning and natural language processing

(NLP). Machine learning means AI learns from data. NLP helps AI understand human
language. For example, Siri uses NLP to understand your voice commands.

Data and Algorithms

Data is what AI uses to learn and make decisions. Algorithms are the rules it
follows. For example, Amazon’s recommendation system uses algorithms to
suggest products based on your browsing history. Knowing this helps you design
better user experiences.

AI Capabilities and Limitations

AI can do a lot, but it has limits. It needs lots of data and might not handle new
situations well. Setting realistic expectations is important. For instance, AI in self-
driving cars can navigate roads but may struggle with unexpected obstacles.

Mini roadmap

Use Your Existing UX Skill

Apply User Research Techniques: Use your skills in talking to users, running
surveys, and testing how people use things to understand what they need from
AI
Utilise Wireframing and Prototyping Tools: Keep using tools like Sketch, Figma,
or Adobe XD to design AI interfaces
Implement User-Centred Design: Apply your knowledge of putting the user
first in all your designs to AI projects.

Learn About A
Understand Basic AI Concepts: Read simple guides or watch videos about what
AI is and how it works
See AI in Everyday Life: Look at examples of AI in the apps and services you use
daily
Learn Common AI Terms: Get familiar with terms like machine learning,
algorithms, and neural networks.

Focus on AI-Specific UX Desig

Study Examples: Look at how other AI products use UX design
Think About Ethical AI: Learn about the moral issues when designing AI
products
Practice AI Design: Create simple projects or mock-ups that include AI features.

Build and Test Your Design

Use Design Tools: Keep using tools like Sketch, Figma, or Adobe XD to create
your designs
Make Prototypes and Test Them: Create working models of your AI designs and
test them with real users
Get Feedback and Improve: Gather feedback on your designs, refine them, and
repeat the process.
