Expressive Intelligence Lab

At the Expressive Intelligence Lab, we promote the human-centered development of AI by investigating how to make AI expressive as part of a product’s interactive behavior and character, how AI can be designed to afford collaborative forms of human-product interaction and how the partnerships such products establish with people over time can be designed to be respectful, reciprocal, and socially appropriate. We work on use-cases in healthcare, retail, and mobility by using diverse methodologies from speculative design to design methods informed by the performing arts.

We explore how methods from theater, design and engineering can be combined to make smart products expressive while staying true to the capabilities of their sensors, software, connectivity and means of actuation. Furthermore, speculative design is investigated to help craft new intelligent systems as propositions that allow them to be discussed and critiqued in the early phases of their development. Below we describe some of our the tools and methods in progress. Critical Scenarios (CSs) is a methodological tool to design Human-Robot Interactions for particular contexts of use. As a rich and versatile concept, CSs bring together particular angles that are important when designing such interactions. Scenarios in CSs appeal to the real and the possible.

      We need to think about how to design them in meaningful and socially relevant ways as they are entering our expert, social, and even domestic lives from robots to fridges.
