Data science + design thinking a perfect blend to achieve the best user expe...Michael Radwin
As data scientists, we invest much of our time on the business problem, the data, the statistics, the algorithm, and the model. But we can’t afford to overlook one very important component: the customer. A great AI and ML model with a poorly designed user experience is ultimately is going to fail. The world’s best data products are born from a perfect blend of data science and amazing user experience. Design thinking is a methodology for creative problem solving developed at the Stanford d.school and is used by world-class design firms like IDEO and many of the world’s leading brands like Apple, Google, Samsung, and GE.
Michael Radwin prepares a recipe for applying design thinking to the development of AI/ML products. You’ll discover deep customer empathy and fall in love with the customer’s problem (not the team’s solution), and you’ll learn to go broad and narrow, focusing on what matters most to customers. Michael shows you how to get customers involved in the development process by running rapid experiments and quick prototypes. These lessons blending data science and design thinking can be applied to products that leverage supervised and unsupervised machine learning models, as well as “old-school” AI expert systems.
What you'll learn
Discover deep customer empathy for the customer’s problem (not the team’s solution)

2. You've heard it time and time again: if you want to get
your name out there, write articles and allow them to be
freely reproduced (with a resource box pointing back to
you, of course). Largely, that is true. Well-written articles
can:
5. - help you to build a database of potential clients
through associated e-courses or a newsletter.
6. So far you probably haven't heard anything you didn't
already know. What YOU are likely to be struggling with
is the process of actually writing the article. Sure, you
can come up with the content - but how do you really
grab those readers? How do you keep their attention all
the way through? And most importantly, how do you
make them want to come back for more?
7. Let's assume that you understand the basics of
constructing and editing an article (it has a beginning,
middle, and an end and you know how to check the
grammar and spelling.) Most of us can manage that. But
if you're not content with simply "getting something out
there" - if you want to WIN readers - then you need to
start thinking about what they want to know, rather
than what you want to tell them.
8. Put your readers first - every time. Give them what they
want, and they'll be queuing up to read anything you
produce. Give them something bland (or worse,
blatantly self-serving) and they'll blast by you so fast
you'll be spinning in the back draft.
9. The following four steps will give you a blueprint for
writing articles that captivate your readers - whatever
the topic.
10. == 1. Find Out What Your Readers Really Want ==
11. Sometimes you'll know what they want because you're
an expert in the field, and understand the problems. If
you don't know the subject area well, you'll have to do
more research. Look for forums on your topic and see
what people are discussing. What are the problems that
need solving? Can you provide an answer? ("If they have
a headache, give them an aspirin.")
13. Spend time working on your opening. Try to avoid trite
questions like "Have you ever wondered why so many
people find it difficult to lose weight?" Firstly, it's dull.
Secondly, it's not targeting the person reading the article
- what do they care about the difficulties "many people"
have with losing weight? They only care about THEIR
weight problem!
14. Try to come up with an opening paragraph that gives the
reader that warm "Hey, this is about me!" feeling right
away. Better still; try to generate a rush of excitement -
"This could be the answer I've been looking for..."
15. Example: "The diet gurus make it all sound so easy: to
lose weight, all you have to do is expend more energy
than you take in. Huh! If it were that simple, the "Big
People" stores would be out of business in a heartbeat.
Luckily for those of us who are tired of diets, gyms and
dull group meetings, there is a back-to-basics way to
tackle this. A way that won't cost you a fortune or leave
you feeling deprived."
17. The sample opening above also illustrates the
importance of the tone you use in your article. You need
'meat' in each article, of course, to make it worth
reading - but make sure it's not indigestible!
18. You're better off writing your article in a natural, relaxed
style that's akin to normal conversation. It doesn't
matter if the first draft is a little too informal - you can
fix that when you edit. Naturally you don't want to
irritate your readers with a too-breezy style, but too-formal
is worse. Readers may want facts, tips, and
strategies, but they hope to be entertained, too! Let
your personality shine through.
20. What's one of the biggest problems with most articles?
They fizzle out! Writers often don't know how to end on
an upbeat note. They either just stop dead or they come
up with a trite ending like: "So what are you waiting for?
Get started today!"
21. The beginning and the end of your article are the two
parts that make the biggest impression. Start by creating
a feeling of anticipation... and leave them feeling
satisfied (or excited) when you finish.
22. If you are offering advice to help them solve a problem
(like obesity) gives your readers a reason to feel
optimistic and good about them. Don't make rash
promises... but do offer hope. If you are giving hints on
marketing or business, sum up the benefits of acting on
your tips. You can also experiment with using a
pithy/humorous quote, or giving readers a specific
action to get them started. Be creative - and don't rush
it.
23. Here's a final tip: create an article-writing cheat-sheet
for yourself. Divide it into beginnings/middles/ends and
add more useful strategies as you think of them. (For
example, using the tips in this article, you might write:
ENDINGS - end on a high, offer hope, use funny quote,
suggest action to get started.)
24. Do this, and you'll be steadily cranking out articles that
everyone wants to publish!
