Open Source Summit Europe 2024

What if you could harness the power of artificial intelligence to make it easier to employ design thinking principles to benefit the users of your application? Design thinking is a highly effective process in designing successful applications. Design thinking can help application developers identify the problems that the application is solving and can improve user experience at launch. But to be most effective design thinking must be employed straight from concept to release. However, this takes money and time which start-ups, or small companies may not have. In this talk we provide an overview of a design thinking system of open source Large Language Model (LLM) agents to help developers get the most out of the design thinking process. Each agent is primed with a persona of an individual in the process and will work with the development team to produce design thinking artefacts and deliverables. We will show how the system helps to accelerate both the effect and adoption of design thinking in an organisation. This is the talk for you if you want to understand how Generative AI can provide solutions that traditional programming may not.
