Unleashing User Innovation

Bol

End-user development (EUD) is creating or modifying software by end users, typically non-programmers. EUD has become popular in recent years due to the rise of user-friendly low-code software development tools and the growing demand for custom software solutions by nonprogrammers. This book provides an overview of the latest trends in EUD. The convergence of End-User Development (EUD) and Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) ushers in a transformative era in which creators and consumers are no longer sharply divided, and users are empowered to innovate as never before. Unleashing User Innovation: Multidisciplinary Perspectives on End-User Development and Generative AI explores this dynamic intersection by bringing together diverse perspectives to highlight how these technologies are reshaping how we interact, learn, and innovate. With the perspective that new challenges require user-driven solutions, the book explores how EUD allows non-technical users to adapt and create tools for their needs, while GenAI infuses the creative capability for creating human-like output, from natural language to multimedia. Together, EUD and GenAI can allow the democratization of innovation and open unimagined possibilities. The book: Traces the evolution of EUD with an overview of the tools designed for chatbot development. Examines the educational landscape and shows how GenAI empowers educators to use AI as consumers and collaborators in shaping educational futures. Presents state-of-the-art applications of GenAI in personalizing education to improve comprehension and support special education. Explores the versatility of GenAI applications in tourism and immersive experiences, public health, and financial systems. Covers major ethical, policy, and global considerations driving responsible AI deployment. By exploring the intersection of diverse fields, the book reveals how generative AI empowers individuals engaged in end-user development to unlock their creative potential. It emphasizes the role of generative AI in enabling these developers to create innovative software solutions effectively. With a focus on cutting-edge advancements, the book showcases how the integration of generative AI fosters a collaborative environment that bridges the gap between technical and non-technical users, thereby democratizing development and fostering innovation.
