You’ll learn the reasons why most AI project fail. You'll leave with new tools (like the matchmaking technique to connect user needs with AI capabilities), new perspectives, and a clearer path to creating trustworthy AI that actually works - for users, teams, and for the world.

~90% of AI projects fail because a copy/paste of yesterday's innovation methods don't cut it today. Update your AI innovation tools & perspectives with us: ✨“New Techniques for Designing for AI” 💻Virtual workshop 📅Fri., Sept. 12 🕚11am-6pm EDT 🔗 hcii.cmu.edu/designforai

Expect lecture time & hands-on experience practicing 3 rapid research methods with HCII faculty Raelin Musuraca (Associate Teaching Professor & MHCI Program Director) and Megan Guidi (Founder of Open & CMU Adjunct Instructor). 🔗Register now: hcii.cmu.edu/rapidresearch

Product development requires quick, iterative feedback cycles from users and stakeholders. Discover innovative methods for validating product improvements or new product ideas after learning a rapid research approach in this virtual workshop.
