http://schedule.sxsw.com/2015/events/event_IAP42182

7 ideas to influence behavior

1. use fear the right way: to focus attention 2. questions work a bit more engaging than statements 3. make them rhyme 4. social proof 5. give people an off-ramp 6. put a face on it 7. try stuff, don’t take these rules for granted

”“as the future of roboticsThe helpful companion

Cyntia Breazeal, MIT

http://schedule.sxsw.com/2015/events/event_IAP43227

Design considerations► Understanding expectations

► Leverage the strenghts of speech

► Partner with other modalities

► Frame the scope

► Support what is natural

► Provide conversational feedback

► Indentify 'errors' as opportunities

► Consistency for a point of view. Cross device.

Think beyond the screen

Think beyond the screen

Things as mean for interaction

Notifications can be haptic

Start with use case, build the story, and make an adaptive service

► Wearables

AI as a Service

AI as a Service

Every digital product and service will use intelligence as integrated part of the functioning

The in-between space of products will be smart

► Google AI

Data as connector

Data as connector

Data will be sanity.

After data service providers the open data connectors will be part of digital services.

► Lyft

Stories & dialogs

Stories & Dialogs

Now storytelling is the elixer for value creation

Adaptive dialogs will be the next wave

Tech as partner in reaching goals

Human partners with tech partners with human
