Expert Insights
Oji sheds light on the changing dynamics of our interaction with software, highlighting:
- How AI is driving a shift from users adapting to technology, to technology adapting around users.
- Why AI’s ability to interpret human ambiguity is redefining how we interact with software, moving us beyond static interfaces.
- The growing importance of designing intelligent systems that understand and respond to diverse human behaviors - marking a deeper, more human-centric era in software development.

We've had an era of 20 years where we've had to contort ourselves to technology, right? A big part of the AI wave will be how technology adapts to us... We have a software layer that understands it with all our imprecision. You can misspell and misspeak and it'll still understand you.

THE NEW DEFAULT angle
Here's how software development teams can capitalize on the shift towards AI-enabled user personalization:
- Start designing for dynamic, adaptive interfaces. Understand that AI's ability to interpret human imprecision means interfaces can now evolve to suit individual user behaviors.
- Incorporate AI-driven interpretation in your user testing. Track how your software responds to various forms of human input, not just precise commands.
- Ensure your AI models focus on understanding and anticipating user needs. Training your AI to be adaptable will improve the user experience and satisfaction.
- Don't just fix user experience issues—try to ascertain why users might be interacting in imprecise ways with your software in the first place. Use these insights to drive development decisions.
- Encourage your team to think from a user-centric perspective. The better the understanding of user behaviors and patterns, the more effective your AI-enhanced software will be.
