In fact, the latter figure is expected to increase to three billion people by 2050.
The robot goes to the cupboard and fridge and sees that there is no food in the house.Then it notices the family dog…..
These ideas and discussions are vital to the safe development of AI in pursuit of the betterment of all people and the planet but they hold absolutely true for human organisations..Design to Value.book, the idea of the reductionist “brief” is challenged.
The book poses questions to the designer: Do we really spend the time to look carefully at the purpose?Are we working to find and deliver the client’s purpose and do we accept that narrowing down on that outcome can only come from constant iterations and evolution of understanding?
The idea that the purpose and objective can be captured in a document and then a design team (human-intelligent-machine) can simply deliver it, is as frightening as the robot childminder.. For Design to Value the rules should be:.
Altruism – the aim should be to maximise the value to the client, understanding the underlying purpose.The link from ‘Spatial Analysis’ to ‘Delivery’ is through accredited supply chain partners.
The common standards referred to earlier will enable a more stable, engaged supply chain.Rather than dealing with a huge volume of project-specific information and having to identify those parts which are ‘cut and paste’ requirements vs. those which are bespoke, supply chains could be working with a much smaller number of requirements, used at scale.
This would enable partners to develop highly repeatable solutions and have them tested or certified or have themselves accredited and ‘pre-qualified’ to meet certain standards, making the entire procurement process more straightforward.. ‘Delivery’.is also linked to ‘Digital Tools’ though a digital marketplace which is very much the missing piece of the puzzle.
