Human-Centered Machine Learning Podcast artwork

In this course we will explore the challenges presented when designing AI-powered services. In particular, we will take a look at Machine Learning (such as deep learning and generative adversarial networks), and how that can be used in human-centered design of digital services. This course is created for User Experience (UX) professionals, Service Designers, and Product Managers as a way to help take a human-centered approach to AI in their work. The course is also useful for developers and engineers who want to both learn more about different Machine Learning techniques, and at the same time get a deeper understanding of the importance of a human-centered approach to digital design. The podcast is developed by Pontus Wärnestål, Stefan Byttner, Cristofer Englund and Jeanette Sjöberg at Halmstad University in Sweden, and is financed by VINNOVA. Music by Lee Rosevere.

Episode 12: Ethical Challenges in AI with Vaike Fors

Oct 11 2019 46 mins

How can we systematically work with ethics and risks with services based on machine learning and other AI techniques? In this final episode, Cristofer and Pontus is talking to Vaike Fors, Associate Professor with a focus on design ethnography. Vaike has a long experience from working with design of services in the autonomous vehicles space.

Episode 11: AI and Mobility with Sigma Dolins

Oct 10 2019 32 mins

Autonomous vehicles present a wide range of interesting design problems. Sigma Dolins, researcher at RISE's Sustainable Transport Team presents interesting cases surrounding dynamic ride-pooling, the experience of being both inside and outside of autonomous vehicles.

Episode 10: AI in Healthcare with Anita Sant'Anna

Oct 08 2019 39 mins

Healthcare is undergoing big changes on many fronts. One of the drivers for change is the race for health data and the many applications of data-driven services in all parts of the healthcare ecosystem. Anita Sant'Anna – PhD and consultant with over 12 years of research experience in signal and data analysis for health care applications – talks about some issues related to data

Episode 09: Application – Learning and Education with Martin Cooney

Oct 02 2019 41 mins

In this episode, Jeanette kicks off the applied part of the course. Our guest is Martin Cooney, Assistant Professor in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics. Jeanette and Martin heads into the fast-moving space of EdTech, where AI techniques can help – and possibly hinder – learning and education.

Episode 08: Agentive Technology with Chris Noessel

Oct 01 2019 42 mins

In this episode Pontus talks to Chris Noessel, author of the book Designing Agentive Technology, about what designers need to know in order to design services that act on users’ behalf. This episode was recorded at the annual design conference From Business To Buttons, which feature international prominent speakers in the overlap between AI and Service Design.

Episode 07: Designing AI Services with Gustav Martner

Sep 30 2019 51 mins

In this episode, we’ll change gear a little bit. We’re discussing the role of human-centered design and its relation to data-driven services. We'll talk about how to consider users' mental models and expectations in our designs, how we move from rule-based tools to probability-based user experiences with "agentive" technology. We'll also talk about how to convey AI capabilities

Episode 06: Generative Adversarial Networks with Edvin Listo Zec

Sep 29 2019 50 mins

Generative Adversarial Networks – or GAN – is powerful newcomer in the AI realm. GANs can be used to generate new data, that can help train new models as well as test and validate AI-based systems. Cristofer’s and Stefan’s guest this time is Edvin Listo Zec from RISE, who will discuss opportunities and risks with GANs.

Episode 05: Deep Learning with Anders Holst

Sep 28 2019 30 mins

“Deep Learning” marks the beginning of a new AI era, starting around 2012. Deep Learning is part of the reason AI has expanded so much recently. In this episode, Cristofer and Stefan discuss the basics of Deep Learning with Anders Holst from RISE.

Episode 04: Practical Machine Learning with Anders Holst

Sep 27 2019 32 mins

Building machine learning applications require a lot of practical work and experience. Off-the-shelf solutions need to be tweaked and tailored to fit your organization’s needs and goals. The practicalities of implementing Machine Learning techniques is the topic of this episode. Stefan and Cristofer continue their discussion with Anders Holst from RISE.
