Redefining Minimum Viable Products with a User-Centric Approach
Manage episode 430291427 series 3587955
In the second episode of Usability Science’s podcast, Peter and Adrienne start off by discussing how they landed on the show’s new official title, “Untangled: The Usability Sciences Podcast.” From there, they share thoughts about the potential flood of low-quality apps after the introduction of new AI tools from Apple and advances to ChatGPT recently announced by OpenAI, offering some practical insights on how these tools should (and shouldn’t) be used. Shifting gears, the conversation moves to the rise of conversational design and the importance of testing for AI interfaces and the challenges they present. The main segment—The Conversation—explores the topic of Minimum Viable Products (MVPs), questioning if startup culture's obsession with "failing fast" might be more harmful than helpful. The hosts share thoughts on how companies can redefine "viable" from a user-centric perspective to gather more accurate data and generate genuinely helpful concepts.
