So, You Want to Build a Copilot?
摘要
Generative AI has opened numerous possibilities for constructing intelligent systems and assistants. As the patterns become more established, there is a need for a disciplined approach to specify requirements for these applications. This chapter presents the beginnings of a methodical framework for business and design considerations for building an effective AI copilot. Our learnings are based on insights gleaned from 250 \(+\) workshops with customers and partners and our in-house experience constructing copilot services and applications. We cover several topics that must be considered: from articulating a clear vision and value proposition, dissecting user personas and their corresponding scenarios, to designing a user experience and interaction model that addresses the needs of the intended audience. We discuss copilot AI UX principles as well as maintenance and continuous improvement.
