The document discusses how to effectively prototype ideas and influence people. It recommends prototyping ideas quickly by aiming to finish the first iteration in a day using lightweight tools. The goal of prototyping is to convince yourself and others of an idea by getting feedback in a tight loop and iterating based on that feedback. This helps refine both the solution and understanding of the problem. Prototypes should communicate the core of an idea to inspire participation from others. When presenting ideas, tell a story that shows how the idea makes people's lives better in order to sell the dream and pitch to your audience.

6 Things to Think About Before Building Your WebsiteFloown
Building a website can be a daunting task. Without preparation even more so. Thinking about the following 6 actionable and practical topics will however make the task much easier to digest. In this Floown Slideshare we will be handling goals, design, technical solutions, styleguides, coding and debugging. 6 topics that are truly worth thinking about before building.
An end to end deep dive through the process of designing user experiences — especially for mobile and responsive web apps. The presentation covers the design process from defining and understanding the problem through iterative solution sprints where hypotheses are tested with lean prototypes.
This talk was originally prepared for a three hour course on User Experience design for a group of start-ups working with an incubator for whom I serve as a mentor.
How well do you think your product team takes what they learn from their users and puts it into the next iteration of the product? How well does your team come to a common understanding of what the next iteration of the product will look like and then build a product that reflects that common understanding?
These two problems — improving your product with user research and effective team collaboration — can both be solved with a design tool called User Story Mapping.
Learn about product design and what it is, why it's important, and methods for approaching design yourself. Slides are copyright Stephanie Engle and taken from a presentation for HackDuke at Duke University.

Love branding? Want the download of this Slideshare presentation on branding?
Simply click here to share it: http://goo.gl/OJS7ub
What is branding? How does one create a brand? Brand identity specialist and Fast Company expert blogger David Brier has unearthed a key trend found in big brands or small brands that do big business. It's a secret strategy but one you'll find amongst brands that are successful, make sales and are respected amongst its core audience.
You can find out more about this at http://www.risingabovethenoise.com
You can follow David on Twitter @davidbrier
David is available for speaking engagements as well as transforming ordinary brands into extraordinary brands.
David has said, "Cookie cutters are for baking, not branding."
Wireframes are dead and for good reasons.
In this session we'll demonstrate the motivation behind graduating to the new world of rapid prototyping from the old static wireframes as a more efficient and productive way of product design which will benefit pre-seed startups and entrepreneurs just as much as it will benefit R&D teams in large companies (maybe more)

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
