Xu Ziwei
Loopy
Founder & CEO
Weiwei Hsu is a founder who designs new ways for humans to interact — on screen, in space, and in culture. She blends play, architecture, and technology to build tools and communities that feel both experimental and deeply human.
She is the founder of Loopy, a tool for animating realities, with over 50 million organic impressions. Her past work spans R&D at Y Combinator Research to visual design at XNode, and her paper was published in the MIT Journal of Design and Science.
Having hosted more than 80 creative tech gatherings from San Francisco to Shanghai, Weiwei keeps pursuing one question: how can design help us feel more alive together in a new medium?
In this workshop, participants will learn about the emerging practice of “agentic design” — designing (somewhat) autonomous systems of sensors, databases, predictive models, and algorithms, which interact with other agents and with humans.
The workshop will introduce models for feedback, learning, digital twins, and various levels and structures of multi-agent systems.
Participants will work on exercises aimed at designing agents — describing context, goals, roles, and interactions — for health, wellness, or sports coaches.
1、Set-up + agenda review, icebreaker, short introduction lecture in full group
2、Starter exercise in small group
3、Main exercise in small group
4、Share out to full group
1、Practitioners in the field of interaction design and related areas (UI/UX/ information architecture/human-computer interaction).
2、Professionals with backgrounds in service design, software design, and system design.
3、Those with basic design thinking and UI/UX experience, without a technical background but eager to expand their agent design capabilities.
1、Learn about LLM based intelligent agents, agentic design, and emerging methods of design.
2、Become familiar with new vocabulary, frameworks (models), and processes emerging around agentic design.
3、Participate in exercises involved in agentic design, so as to get a sense of how you might do it
