How can we bridge the gap? Do we even need to bridge the gap as the capabilities might be very different? 00:30:40 Maria Rauschenberger 00-002: What do you think are Voice User Interfaces (VUI) as part of Conversational User Interfaces (CUI) are playing a role? How are you approaching to build these new machine learning (?) VUIs?? 00:34:59 Orit Shaer: Feel free to type your questions here: 00:35:26 Diana Tosca: How do we make these products and emerging technologies accessible to homes that wouldn’t traditionally have them (e.g. low income homes)? 00:37:09 Charity Reed: ^^That's a great question 00:37:40 Adhel Geng: Great question, Diana! 00:38:32 Charity Reed: To add on to Diana's question what about older homes, that weren't designed for these devices, without harming the historical beauty of the home? 00:39:05 Nadia Fereydooni: A big part of context is culture which can introduce a lot of complexities; how should this be balanced with the scalability of the products? 00:42:06 Eleanor Greer: I have 2 questions: The second one connects to Diana’s question: 1. Microsoft is a pretty big company, and I was wondering what sorts of differences exist between product development in a start up versus a big company like Microsoft? 2. Do you ever find that designing for profitability gets in the way of accessibility(like making technology that is accommodating for disabilities even if they may have a smaller market with less money to spend)? 00:42:23 Tolulope Oshinowo: Amazon recently cut the use of it's facial recognition technology due to recent events causing conflicts in ethics. Although we are talking about AI here, what do you believe are some important things for Microsoft to consider to avoid similar pitfalls? Should the government be involved or should ethical determination be steered by the people/markets? 00:46:58 Varshini: You talked about designing for different types of user needs in your example about the person who wanted connectivity that would let him know how his family is doing.. I think this points to the need for both productivity and wellbeing in design. Talking about the future of work, how do you think designers should approach designing technology that enhances both productivity and well-being? 00:47:16 Nadia Fereydooni: Even when a technological is adding a value, how should we ensure its sustainability in the communities after the novelty effect wears of or the researchers leave the site?
