Brief Description

“You don’t need to slap a chatbot on everything for it to be intelligent, and the best interfaces may be the ones you barely notice. 

In this talk, Akshay Kore, author of Designing Human-Centric AI Experiences and a Product leader at Voicecare.AI, explores how natural interfaces and ambient intelligence are reshaping the way we interact with technology. Drawing on real-world experience in building AI assistants for various domains, Kore will share practical principles for designing interfaces that feel natural and almost invisible, where the technology fades into the background and feels like magic.”
