Jensen Harris: Beyond Menus and Toolbars in Microsoft OfficeSteve Williams
BayCHI December, 2005, Program: Long before the launch of the new Office product, the BayCHI community was eager to understand the new "Ribbon" user interface (UI). Members convinced BayCHI program chair Rashmi Singha to bring in Jensen Harris, the lead UI designer for the Office UI suite. It is atypical of Microsoft's culture to allow someone to discuss a product before launch. But, alongside the serious risk of completely redoing a core product, and giving all the design control to a team of user experience designers, Microsoft is opening the black box and explaining it to the public far before launch.

The pleasurable UX behind a form lies in understanding the needs and giving attention to the minute details. Our aim should be to create an effortless interface with clear labels and the most appropriate input field to reduce the effort and cognitive load of the user. Implementing design heuristics like Visibility of status, user’s freedom, consistency; will help you to build a brilliant design and make you understand the reasons behind the form’s UX.
In this talk, Caroline Jarrett will use eye-tracking data, and her many years experience of forms, to give you ideas for the next time that happens to you . She’ll also get us thinking about some other details of forms, like required field indicators and colons on labels.
Caroline Jarrett started to work with forms when delivering Optical Character Recognition systems to the then Inland Revenue. The systems didn't work very well, and it turned out that the problems arose because people made mistakes when filling in forms. She developed a fascination with the challenge of making forms easy to fill in, a fascination that shows no signs of wearing off over 15 years later.
Caroline is co-author of 'Forms that work: Designing web forms for usability', the companion volume to Ginny Redish's hugely popular book 'Letting go of the words: Writing web content that works'.

Want to have the perfect online form? The following presentation slides aim to give you tips to ensure that when your customers use any of your online forms, their journey and their experience will be a good one.
Many websites excel at giving information… but aren’t so good at taking it. Forms are an integral part of the digital experience and have a large impact not only on conversion but also the overall user experience. Nothing can ruin a good user experience faster than having to fill in a bad form online.
A presentation on Label placement in forms, at the Technical Communication Summit, Seattle, US, April 2010. Amongst the time-consuming controversies we look at are left and right alignment, labels above and below fields, how to handle required fields, colons, and sentence case.
The whole point of a good GUI (Graphical User Interface) is being able to understand what is going on without reading every single detail. That is why we prefer big red crosses to say "Don't do that you oaf!" instead of a line of text that says "I think you may want to reconsider your options."

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.
Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.

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.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne

All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.

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.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

4. Label Positioning / Alignment http://www.uxmatters.com/MT/archives/000107.php Left Aligned Right Aligned Left Aligned Above Fields Placing a label above an input field works better in most cases, because users aren’t forced to look separately at the label and the input field. Be careful to visually separate the label for the next input field from the previous input field.
