"People tend to delegate their responsibilities to higher authorities."

As artificial intelligences become more widespread, their acceptance in society is also increasing. This increased acceptance can be attributed to two factors: First, better education and second, increased use. In conclusion, this means that it is not only increased knowledge that makes us accept artificial intelligences, but also the simple, creeping habituation to them.

However, we believe that such a technology, which has the potential to influence our everyday lives so profoundly, should be reflected socially.What happens when we let artificial intelligences make sensitive life decisions? How much freedom do we give up? Who is liable in case of doubt? What does this do to our self-image? And is it at all possible to include emotional factors in decisions made by artificial intelligences?

Watch and think about ...

Our report shows a vision of the futurethat deals with the question of what role artificial intelligence (AI) could play in our everyday lives in the future. In the context of the smart AR glasses, which are connected to the AI "Ida", and the fictitious company Future Sense Solutions, various everyday situations are highlighted. In all three scenes, "Ida" takes on the role of the protagonist's life advisor.

Process – Triple Diamond

With the help of design futuring methods, we thematised different technologies and generated scenarios. The Triple Diamond created an agile framework for a our project process. It helps to reach the project goal through iterative steps and strategic methods.









Scenario building

One step for the scenario building was the analysis of the different possibilities of influence of artificial intelligence in everyday life. Possible extreme levels:
