The Intersection of Human Insight and Artificial Intelligence – Instructor-Led Virtual Workshop
As AI continues to reshape the manufacturing landscape, success depends not just on technology — but on people. This interactive session explores how Human-Centered Design (HCD) principles can make AI adoption more practical, trusted, and impactful on the shop floor.
Participants will learn how to apply empathy-driven methods to identify real user needs, frame high-value opportunities, and bridge those insights into design sprints that lead to smarter, more usable AI solutions.
Through hands-on simulations and group exercises, attendees will practice interviewing frontline workers, mapping insights in Miro, and prioritizing opportunities that matter most to manufacturing teams.
Benefits of Attending:
- Build Practical HCD Skills — Learn techniques for interviewing, synthesizing insights, and framing “How might we…” questions that directly inform AI use cases.
- Strengthen AI Readiness — Discover how trust, usability, and inclusivity accelerate AI adoption on the shop floor.
- Turn Insight into Action — See how to translate qualitative feedback into design sprint inputs that guide prototypes and testing.
- Empower Frontline Perspectives — Understand how worker experiences can uncover hidden opportunities for improvement in safety, quality, and throughput.
- Collaborate in Real Time — Use Miro for live exercises and group reflections, gaining both a process and a toolkit you can bring back to your organization.
