If you’re creating or innovating a service or product that leverages AI, I implore you to include a toggle ability.
The Smart Nest Thermostat is always learning your temperature habits, but will 1. override your settings for the vacation you plan on taking and 2. if you edit it multiple times while on vacation, it’s going to learn from that.
Spotify is always learning what you like to listen to and will try to give you more of what you want to listen to, but perhaps you have a kid that you want to play children’s music for temporarily or you just feel in the mood for some polka music – guaranteed you’ll have a very different Release Radar populated for you next week than weeks prior.
Driverless vehicles are learning your routes, but one override to take the longer scenic route home forces the AI to question itself: maybe the path that has been taken up to today isn’t the right path.
What a beautiful thing having a widget to toggle the learning on and off would be.
Stay Positive & Don’t Wait For Suggestions For This To Reach Your Threshold, Build It In From The Beginning
