obervation 1: project works as expected
My user tester had little to no issues using the version 2 code and was able to navigate to the end easily. However, due to the lack of information on the title screen, they were confused on how to start the program. But once they clicked the first button, the rest of the program made sense.
observation 2: user interactions are a bit lackluster
As of right now, there are only two user interactions which have to do with the option buttons on each scenario. My tester said that they would like to see more interesting interactions based on their inputs.
obervation 3: mimics a real ai chatbot well
The interface design of the program is very similar to existing AI chatbots which gives my project a realistic feel to it. The only addition that could be implemened is a thinking animation that runs when the AI is thinking of its response.
next steps
- Improve user interaction by fulling implementing the shape interactions. Background shapes will passively animation through movements such as spinning. On-hover, shapes will do an additional animation. When the user selects the reckless usage of AI option, the shapes will dull in color and become less animated.
- Add a thinking animation to further enhance the AI chatbot feel.
- If time permits-- add additional option choices to each scenario to give users a range of ideas to pick from to make it more interesting.
- Add more details to the starting screen to help users understand how to use the program.
