UX Terms holding the Township at ransom

The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR) has had a significant impact on the field of user experience (UX) design, particularly in the areas of product design and development. These technologies have enabled designers to create more immersive and interactive experiences for users, and have opened up new possibilities for how we interact with technology.

However, the impact of these technologies has been limited in the context of townships, where many people lack access to basic technologies and resources. While AI, VR, and AR have the potential to improve the lives of people in townships by enabling better access to information, education, and healthcare, the infrastructure necessary to support these technologies is often lacking.

Growing up in the township and currently dealing with technology on a daly basis, I’ve realised the more things change, the more they stay the same. The topic will cover on how quickly we are moving forward with technology and yet things such as UX terminology is part of the blocker in communicating with the townships. The township learns with a voice they trust, whereas technology teaches with a leap of faith.
