The document discusses the current state and future potential of voice user interfaces (VUIs). It notes that VUIs today have limited vocabularies and skills, cannot learn, and interactions can feel unpredictable. However, VUIs show promise for hands-free contexts and simplifying complex tasks. The document envisions VUIs becoming more intelligent, ubiquitous across platforms and devices, and serving as a "connective tissue" to link different software and services.

Adopting VUI in a GUI world - Enterprise UX MeetupStephen Gay
Apple’s Siri and Google Now have ignited consumers’ interest in VUI by delivering valuable and delightful customer experiences. Innovative companies can leverage VUI solutions to create a competitive advantage. But how do you drive the adoption of VUI in an organization with a long GUI-only history? We'll share the frameworks we used to evangelize VUI to help you start your own grassroots VUI movement.

Zengenti and Clearleft recently partnered on a redesign, which began with user research that defined the trajectory of the whole project.

Stop It! Taking on the bad habits that hurt design discussions.Adam Connor
In this presentation I discuss 10 bad habits that we've found in teams and organizations that inhibit their ability to critique and hold productive, meaningful design discussions.
We all enjoy well-designed, well-crafted experiences, but all too often our development processes (Agile, Lean) and organizational cultures seem to pit deadlines and quick iterations against a thoughtful attention to details. Sacrificing quality on the altar of quick is a dangerous mistake, especially as the bar for “good enough” continues to rise in 2015.
We see an ever increasing attention to detail, specifically when it comes the careful use of animation, typography, communications with customers, and creating all-around frictionless experiences. This attention to detail isn’t limited to Apple anymore. Instead, we’re seeing this across industries—companies like Uber, Square, Virgin, and Nest are sweating the details to dominate their competition through design.
So, what does it take for a company to consistently deliver great customer experiences? And what exactly does it mean to be a “design-driven” company?
Speaker Stephen P. Anderson will share his experiences, both as a consultant and now as part of an executive team, trying to balance the needs of the business with needs of the customer. He’ll share the tools and processes he uses to reconcile “getting it done” with “getting it done right,” showing how you can create a culture that values both shipping and quality experiences. He’ll explore what craftsmanship looks like for (mostly) digital experiences, with numerous examples of companies and products that are raising the bar for UX professionals.
Friends, a zombie apocalypse is upon us: an onslaught of new mobile devices, platforms, and screen sizes, hordes of them descending every day. We're outmatched. There aren't enough designers and developers to battle every platform. There aren't enough editors and writers to populate every screen size. Defeating the zombies will require flexibility and stamina—in our content. We'll have to separate our content from its form, so it can adapt appropriately to different contexts and constraints. We'll have to change our production workflow so we're not just shoveling content from one output to another. And we'll have to enhance our content management tools and interfaces so they're ready for the future. Surviving the zombie apocalypse is possible. In this talk Karen will explain how: by developing a content strategy for mobile.

In this discussion, FusionSpark media will explore with the founders of SpinRiot and The Documentary Summit the brief history of interactive content, the accelerated movement and key drivers towards interactive engagement with audiences, and, through emerging interactive platforms how storytellers can quickly create and publish their own original interactive storylines. We will then demonstrate a new platform that requires little to no technical training to get you up and running in no time.

11. VUI has no affordance;
no way to discover what it can do.
@bensauer
12. • Limited shared vocabulary
• Poor skills / co-ordination
• No capacity to learn
• Never sure job will get done
Using VUI is a bit like dealing with Manuel…

(On modes of input) Everything is best for
something and worst for something else.
The trick is knowing what is what, for what,
when, for whom, where, and most
importantly, why.

IN SUMMARY
VUI is going to render many
screen-based interactions redundant…
but it can’t replace everything;
so start designing multimodal,
and beyond narrow use-cases.

58. Technology is not things, it is practise.
therefore…
Outcomes, not outputs.

those that disappear.
They weave themselves into the
