1. Write a short “interface review” for the so called mobile and voice based intelligent assistants, namely, the Samsung Bixby, Google Assistant and Apple Siri .
What is your expectation from such “intelligent” assistants? For example, if I asked something like, “What shall I have for lunch today?”, what kind of answer or response do you expect from these AI driven assistants? Should it (or can it ever) be more intelligent than a human secretary? How does expectation influence the usability for the good or bad perspective?
How do you think AI can be used or influence things like universal usability or even UX?
2. Write a short “comparative interface review” for the travel planning web sites.
Identify or guess the rationales behind the particular interface choices each site has made.
