Corinne Schillizzi
Author of “Human-Machine Learning“
Driving UX Research and Design at DataRobot.
With a background in psychology and information technology, I have always been drawn to the intersection between design and machine learning, and I have collected expertise in the field for seven years.
I’m currently driving UX Research and Design at DataRobot. My experience includes working on highly technical products at Amazon Web Services and as a Service Designer at NTTDATA for various international clients. Like many in the design industry, my career started as a web designer for small agencies coding for front-end interfaces. My true love in each position has been listening to customers and diving into their needs to inform product vision, strategy, ideation, and interaction iteration.
My journey as an author began when I moved from Italy to Ireland. While unpacking, I happened to browse a copy of my Master’s degree thesis on AI for Music Recommendation and Generation. Reading some pages, I realized how my studies and work experience led me to write a book on designing ML. I started collecting my experiences in designing MLs, gathering feedback from other designers on their experience with the toolkit I developed in Tangity, and interviewing other experienced designers in the field.
Human-Machine Learning is the result of 10 years of learning that started during my university studies, and I hope it can help other researchers and designers work in the ML field.
