What do our interactions with machines reveal?
TL;DR:
As a designer and developer, I have often thought about the ways in which our interactions with machines reveal insights about ourselves as humans.
These interactions can help us understand ourselves better and push us towards more intuitive and natural uses of technology. I have personally experienced the emotional power of such interactions, as demonstrated by the close connection my child formed with a robot during the holiday season. Additionally, I have come to appreciate the concept of attention in machine-human interactions and the importance of building relationships through attention and response. Empathy is also crucial in designing technology that meets the needs and emotions of the user.
I believe that technology has the potential to facilitate communication and connection between people, even across language barriers.
This is the best opportunity to make people communicate, learn, play and build love and happiness together at scale.
