Talk: What Happens Tomorrow is Designed Today

AI is changing the way companies conduct business, and how UX designers and researchers perform their jobs. During this presentation we will discuss:

• How Google is incorporating AI into its products
• The limitations and unintended consequences of AI
• A high-level road map for how Google is approaching AI including best practices on AI principles, data governance, and UX design

And perhaps a small glimmer of optimism as we look at technological advances of the past to inform how we move forward in the future.
