Determined Agency Design
What is Determined Agency Design?
The key virtue of Determined Agency Design (DAD) is a balance between user and platform in determining an individual user’s experience. This balance matches a societal balance in transparency and agency Determined Agency Design allows the user to determine the amount of input and instances where algorithms and AI play a key in consuming content. DAD then gives the platform the opportunity to lean into algorithmic and AI generated UX when users are creating content. In my experience people tend to create content similar to the content they’ve created before, however for a more robust society users should experience content created outside of their bubble. Thus the balance between transparency and agency at the point of user/platform interaction inherent in Determined Agency Design.
