UX design is shifting from organizing interfaces and user flows to defining how people can understand, verify, and correct AI’s decisions. The challenge is not just reducing interactions, but designing the right balance between automation, transparency, and human control.

This is especially relevant to autonomous mobility. Passengers need to understand what the system is doing without being overwhelmed by information. Designing for trust means making automation understandable, transparent, and open to human intervention.

Exciting to see Waymo and Toyota taking the next step toward autonomous mobility in Japan.
Today, we’re announcing the next phase of our autonomous driving collaboration with @ToyotaMotorCorp to scale a fleet of bZ4X autonomous vehicles in Japan, beginning with testing and validation in 2027.  Read more about our partnership here: waymo.com/blog/2026/10/toyot…   __ 本日、@ToyotaMotorCorpとの自動運転分野における協業を新たな段階へと進めることを発表します。2027年に開始する試験および検証を皮切りに、日本国内で「bZ4X」の自動運転フリートの拡大を進めてまいります。 パートナーシップの詳細はこちらをご覧ください: waymo.com/blog/2026/10/toyot…

長らく放置していた個人ブログを、ようやく再構築しました。 写真関連もこのブログに統合したので、デザインはもとより考えていることや取り組んだことを少しずつ残していこうと思います。 bookslope.jp/?view=home&v=2

America.gov is fascinating. Built with the National Design Studio, it connects 29,000+ government websites through a single AI front door. Not just websites: User Intent → AI → Service This feels like one direction UX and service design are heading in the AI era.
Today we’re launching America.gov, a single front door to the federal government. Instead of opening a bunch of tabs across different agency sites and trying to figure out which information actually matters to you, you can ask America a question and get the relevant answer from across 29,000+ official government websites, with the source and what to do next.

UX design in the AI era is shifting from “making” to designing how far AI should make decisions. Alison Rand explored the “Judgment Layer” at #ShiftUX. Jonathan Walter frames AI systems in four layers: Generation / Recommendation / Autonomy / Judgment #UX #AI #IA

The key is the Judgment Layer: What should AI decide? When should humans step in? How confident should AI be before acting? With AI, we may need to preserve friction for confirmation and oversight. This feels close to the shift from Designer to Architect. #UX #AI #IA

Dario Amodei’s “Pace the Frontier” proposes three steps: Embedded Evaluators Democratic Coordination Global Coordination It feels like a major turning point in the history of humans and machines, and an important step toward global safety and order. darioamodei.com/post/we-must…

Paz Perez「Context Architecture: Applying IA to AI Systems」 - プロンプトより「文脈」が重要 - AI が使う情報を構造化する - AI Skill にも Findability と Mental Model が必要 - AI Memory も構造化が必要 - AI の振る舞いを設計する 情報設計が AI 時代にまた中心に戻ってきた感。 #IA #AI

Paz Perez は、Google / Google DeepMind で AI × UX に取り組んできた Designer。 動画では、AI における「文脈」を IA の視点からどう設計するかを解説。Prompt Engineering から Context Architecture への広がり、AI Skill や Memory の設計まで扱っています。 #IA #AI maven.com/p/70e491/context-a…

Since I started using AI more deeply in my work, I’ve been thinking a lot about one question: What does it really mean to “work” or to “make” something? #IA #AI

Paz Perez’s idea of “Context Architecture for AI systems” points in a similar direction. Information Architecture is evolving from organizing content into shaping the context that influences how AI systems behave. #IA #AI rosenverse.rosenfeldmedia.co…

Information Architecture -> Context Architecture -> Intelligence Architecture Maybe AI is not simply changing my work. Maybe it is revealing more clearly what I have actually been doing all along. I’m beginning to think I’m less a Designer, and more an Architect… #IA #AI
