Overview

For Ada Lovelace Day on 8 October 2019, the Ada Lovelace Institute (ALI) commissioned COMUZI to create the A.D.A. (the Algorithms, Data and AI) Bot as an engagement tool to raise awareness of the Institute and its work.

As the Ada Lovelace Institute was a fairly new organisation at the time, the challenge was on how to build something engaging, while ensuring the serious work the institute conducts is communicated clearly through the A.D.A bot experience.

Process

The ideas for A.D.A.’s conversation design pathways focused a number of key themes and characteristics such as:

  • Women leadership + conversational maze + adventurer
  • Conversational maze + future tech consequences + adventurer
  • Ethics & values + different perspectives + future tech consequences
