AI Fluency

I believe in human-centered AI design that augments rather than replaces human capabilities. My approach focuses on:

  • Understanding AI capabilities and limitations to design appropriate experiences
  • Creating interfaces that make AI outputs transparent and explainable
  • Ensuring AI systems are accessible and equitable for all users
  • Designing feedback loops that improve AI performance over time
  • Balancing automation with human agency and control
