Presentation
Build Your Prototype in Minutes: Human Factors Meets Next-Gen AI
DescriptionWhat if you could build a working prototype for a healthcare solution in just minutes, without writing a single line of code? This workshop will introduce participants to two emerging approaches in artificial intelligence that make this possible. The first, known as vibe coding, allows anyone, not just developers, to describe a project’s goals and desired outcomes in natural language while an AI system generates the underlying code. The second, agentic AI, represents a new class of AI systems that can reason, act, and collaborate across tasks rather than simply answering prompts. These approaches are already transforming industries: for example, Amazon has implemented vibe coding as the backbone for prompting its machine interfaces, while Apple reports automating nearly half of its internal processes with AI agents. Together, they open up exciting possibilities for healthcare innovation as well as for everyday professional workflows.
Participants will gain hands-on experience with both methods, including building a simple AI prototype through vibe coding, designing how an AI agent could automate or support parts of a workflow (such as scheduling, analysis, or documentation), and experimenting with ways these tools can address real healthcare challenges. Alongside healthcare case studies, we will also explore how these tools can save time and reduce cognitive load in the daily work of human factors professionals.
By the end of the session, participants will understand the concepts of vibe coding and agentic AI, learn practical prototyping skills, and leave with strategies to apply these techniques in both healthcare projects and their own professional workflows. No prior coding or AI expertise is required. This workshop is designed for human factors/ergonomics professionals, clinicians, designers, researchers, innovators, and anyone curious about how AI will reshape healthcare work. Computers or tablets are recommended; all other materials will be provided.
