Manage episode 515823395 series 3685711
We share a practical framework for building trustworthy AI products and apply it to Joy, an agent that plans a full concert trip. Five pillars—competence, transparency, predictability, alignment and resilience—turn hesitant users into confident delegators.
• the shift from usability to trust as the primary interface
• the origin story of the trust builder framework
• competence through clarification, confirmation and visible progress
• transparency with leading reasons, process breadcrumbs and trade-offs
• predictability via stable flows and user control
• alignment with honest upsells and labeled sponsorship
• resilience with plain-language errors, recovery paths and saved state
• a final provocation on radical honesty as competitive edge
