Can design-centric thinking drive the future of AI and IoT?
The battle between engineer-centric and design-centric product development is at least as old as the iPhone, but with the mobile revolution making way for newer tech like AI and IoT, these questions are back at the forefront. How do product teams across Canada push back against pressure to jump on the latest technological bandwagon? And what are the best practices and pitfalls for teams looking to build new tech with a human-centric approach?
The capacity for AI and IoT to act as force multipliers (for both good and bad), make these questions more urgent (and ethical). As algorithms and mesh networks become both omnipresent and more powerful, what role do product managers play in ensuring that the efficiency of tech doesn’t come at the cost of our humanity?
