Who Should Read This Book

All designers—UX, interface, or product—are waking up to the importance of privacy. But if you’re a strategist, a developer, a producer, or a product manager, online privacy is your job, too. Design for Privacy dissects and explains the ever-changing field of designing for privacy in depth.

Who Should Read This Book This book was written with four audiences in mind: Product owners and technology strategists who want to ensure that the software they offer is doing everything it can for users and their organizations. Interaction designers, user experience professionals, educators, and students who will build and inform the direct experiences with these systems. Futurists and tech sector pundits who might want to understand that AI is only as dark as they let it become. Everyone else because part of the responsibility of being a citizen is building literacy in the major forces at play, what biases those forces have, and what needs to be done to combat negative effects. Takeaways You’ll learn to: Understand the conceptual difference between an agent and an assistant. Better understand your business’s challenges and how AI can help. Incorporate the book’s framework into an existing design process. De-risk how assistants are introduced to a workflow. Learn design patterns to mitigate the risks of assistants. Rely on AI assistants just enough, but not too much.

About the Author

Christopher Noessel has shaped interaction design for over 30 years, designing products and services across diverse domains. Back in the dot-com days, he directed information design at marchFIRST, establishing their interaction design Center of Excellence. As a founding graduate of Italy’s legendary Interaction Design Institute Ivrea, his thesis project, Fresh—a service design for lifelong learners—was presented at London’s MLearn conference in 2003. He’s since visualized counterterrorism futures, prototyped forthcoming technologies for Microsoft, and designed telehealth devices. After leaving Microsoft, he joined a boutique San Francisco agency for a decade, where he led the “generator” practice and became their first Design Fellow. At IBM as a Design Principal, he ran the worldwide Design for AI guild, as well as a team on the guild. He also developed core AI training for designers and delivered global workshops. Christopher’s publications include Make It So: Interaction Design Lessons from Science Fiction (2012, with Nathan Shedroff); the 4th Edition of About Face: The Essentials of Interaction Design (2014); Pair Design (2016, with Gretchen Anderson); and Designing Agentive Technology: AI That Works for People (2017). He maintains scifiinterfaces.com and occasionally posts to Medium and LinkedIn as the mood strikes. He was one half of the world’s first AI-married couple in 2018. His family have what they believe to be the first AI-designed winter holiday sweaters. They are awesome. Catt Small is a Staff Product Designer who has done design work for companies of all sizes including Asana, Etsy, SoundCloud, and Nasdaq.

An observer at heart, Catt focuses on ways to improve the lives of people through design. She is interested in ways to increase empathy through interactive media. Many of her personal projects center around the human experience and tackle issues related to interpersonal relationships, self-expression, gender, and race. In addition to her product design work, Catt makes video games by herself and with friends. She is co-organizer of the Game Devs of Color Expo, an annual event that amplifies the creative power held by people of color in games. In her spare time, she writes about professional development and creates artwork of all kinds. Robert Stribley is a user experience design professional with some 25 years of experience.

He teaches user experience design at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan. A chronic student himself, Robert earned degrees in journalism and English education and certificates in political journalism, privacy and data security, and global affairs.

He writes regularly on Medium, but his writing has also been featured in publications such as Creative Loafing, The Huffington Post, The Observer , Open Global Rights, UX Collective, and UX Magazine.
