NUX Online – 3rd June 2020 – Automation vs Human Touch

The next NUX event is taking place on Wednesday 3rd June 2020. In light of government advice, this will be a virtual event, powered by Zoom.

Join us online from 6:15pm ready for the talk which will begin at 6:30pm.

Automation vs Human Touch

In a world where there’s a tool for almost everything, Robert and Simon from Enjoy Digital explain why the human touch (combined with some automation) is best.

They don’t have anything against automation, but when it comes to user experience and user research, it’s best to proceed with caution and provide a mix of the two. They’ll give examples of projects they’ve worked on where automated tools just wouldn’t give the full picture and they’ll explain why.

Robert and Simon will also cover how their integrated approach works best, with Robert working in UX research and Simon working in UX design – the pair talk challenges and coming together, partly due to their challenges over automated research and accessibility tools.
