Session: Designing Trustworthy AI Products: UX Patterns to Manage Hallucinations, Bias, and Uncertainty
As AI features move from demos into real products, teams face a recurring challenge: users must make high-stakes decisions with systems that can be uncertain, biased, or wrong. In this talk, I’ll share practical UX patterns for building trustworthy AI experiences—especially for enterprise tools—covering how to communicate uncertainty, reduce over-reliance, design human oversight, and create audit-ready interactions without overwhelming users.
Drawing from my experience designing complex B2B products and AI-powered experiences, I’ll walk through a repeatable framework: (1) define failure modes (hallucinations, bias, data gaps), (2) map risk to UX affordances, (3) add “verification loops” and user control, and (4) instrument feedback to continuously improve model + UX. Attendees will leave with concrete design patterns, a lightweight checklist for design reviews, and examples they can adapt to their own AI products.
