A Conversation on Putting Users Back at the Center of AI
Come join us for a Q&A-style conversation with Justin Lowe, Founder of User Research International. We’ll explore how UX research is evolving alongside AI, what it means to bring human-in-the-loop AI evaluations into your work, and why this emerging practice could be a natural next step for UX researchers.
This second URI Connect event is also an open house. We’re excited to welcome you to our new Kirkland office, show you around our usability labs, and host an expanded reception with food, drinks, and more time to connect with fellow attendees.
Walk away with:
The Natural Evolution of UX Research: Why human-in-the-loop AI evaluations are the next logical iteration of UX research
From UX Testing to Model Testing: How the core principles of UX research translate directly into evaluating AI outputs
Adapting Familiar Methodologies: Practical modifications to existing UX research methods for HITL evaluation workflows
Where UX Researchers Add Unique Value: How UX research provides a strong foundation for working with AI
Space is limited, so please RSVP. To allow time for networking and settling in, doors will open at 4:15 PM. The program will begin at 4:30 PM sharp followed by the open house and reception. We hope you’ll join us for the conversation, explore our new space, and stay for the reception.
