Design Thinking & Ethical Considerations for AI Technologies

There’s a lot of chatter about how to leverage Gen AI tools in the UX field and in our daily lives. Yet there are HUGE opportunities for the UX community to positively impact the design and creation of AI-driven technologies; we get to design *for* AI technologies. In this session you will learn some practical strategies & tactics to contribute to AI technologies through the lens of the UX discipline.

About our speaker:
Sarah Alme is a User Experience research and design leader working at the intersection of user needs, product strategy and technical feasibility.

Sarah’s passion to understand and design for the user was ignited during her undergraduate studies in Biomedical Engineering at Marquette University over 20 years ago. A critical care bedside monitoring senior design project turned into a full-time role at GE Healthcare where Sarah got to travel the world interviewing doctors and nurses and designed the next-generation monitor. Many aspects of Sarah’s design contributions remain present in the GE Healthcare bedside monitors on the market today. Sarah expanded User Experience research and design expertise while developing life-sustaining implantable stimulators and drug pumps at Medtronic. Her UX design work at GE and Medtronic resulted in 9 patents.
