Clearleft Says
As soon as Ben Sauer gave us a demo of this talk, we knew we had to have it at UX London and signed him on the spot. We were blown away and we hope you will be too!
Open the pod bay doors, designer
Right now voice UIs like Siri are, well…. hit and miss. But all the big players are heavily investing in voice UI, let’s suppose it will be much smarter, soon. What does that mean for us designers? Will screen UI even be required? Should we be changing our workflow now? In this talk, Ben will look at the current capabilities of Voice UIs, how the APIs are connecting to apps, what’s next, and how this might change our design process and products.
