In the era of #AI, trust is the currency. We can no longer tell if images are AI-generated. LLMs hallucinate facts. And every prompt yields different results. My new piece explores how #datavisualization can help us build AI experiences people trust. www.formfollowsbehavior.com/p/on-trust?r...

On Trust: Why AI Needs Data Visualization

To most of us, data seems like it is fact.

🧵 The @ycombinator.com.web.brid.gy talk by @karpathy.bsky.social had a great insight about “partial autonomy”—humans and AI working together, each bringing unique strengths. We’ve been working on Seven Lenses to help designers build these collaborative interfaces. Link to FigJam toolkit below 👇

For builders in AI, design is the edge. Because AI is largely invisible, the way a product feels to use—how it fits into our lives—matters more than ever. Experience drives growth more than efficiency, speed, or having the best model.

Key insight from last Thursday’s “Human-Centered Design in a Machine-Centered Future” panels organized by IDEO SF and TEDAI: Design matters. Instead of changing our definitions of art, culture, and society to fit the AI narrative, we can shape our relationship with AI. #AIUX #HumanCenteredDesign

Experimenting with @figma.com Make—built this interactive 3D globe mapping the 250 largest cities by population and GDP. Just a few prompts and it nailed the visual style I was going for. The speed of iteration on complex #dataviz is honestly wild 🌍

Jony Ive and Sam Altman are building “quiet” AI hardware that could introduce computing’s fourth modality which some are also thinking of as ZeroUI. But the real shift isn’t about eliminating interfaces—it’s about evolving from AI as a tool to AI as a thinking partner. #AIUX #DesignThinking

Just published: “Designing for Human–AI Collaboration” How do we move beyond chatbots and bolt-on assistants to create AI-native user experiences? The most effective interfaces will treat AI as a partner. Read the full article: medium.com/schemadesign... #AIUX #IntelligentInterfaces #Config2025

Designing for Human-AI Collaboration

The next generation of interfaces will radically simplify how we understand complex data through human-AI partnership.

Excited to be here at #Config2025! Just saw the introduction of Figma Make, a vibe coding integration via Claude 3.7 Sonnet that can generate interactive prototypes from designs. Amazing new features coming! #IntelligentInterfaces

In a Bloomberg interview today, Snowflake CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy gets it right: "any visual interface...has a better version powered by AI." This is why @schemadesign.bsky.social is pioneering #IntelligentInterfaces that harness #AI to amplify human ingenuity. The future of #UX design is AI-native.

As 2024 closes, I'm energized by the opportunities in #AI. We're at a fascinating inflection point — AI's power to extract meaning from complex data is extraordinary, yet we're just beginning to imagine the interfaces needed to harness its potential. Excited for what 2025 will bring! #AppliedAI

As we close out 2024, we at @schemadesign.bsky.social have been reflecting on and refining our vision for the future of AI tools — simple, powerful interfaces designed to unlock meaning from complex data. Here's our vision for what's next... #AppliedAI #AI #IntelligentInterfaces #Data #UX
