Overview
Gene, data management tool, empowering people steer their persona data in thorough or heuristic tweaks for more precise and diverse content discovery experience. Enabling co-interpretation as pivot in machine learning process, people can train their models to be more reliable for uses, in a handy but assertive way.
‍
We, as human, somehow reacted suspicious even when getting beneficial responses from big data blackbox. “ Algorithm is too profound to be understood, and easy to be messed up for obscure reasons ”, Some implicit algorithmic bias on targeted feeds (e.g. Pink tax in shopping ads) or information cocoon situation, caused by invisible user profiling in on-cloud analysing, make the public overwhelmed.

Balancing the legal rights entitled to natural persons with the needs of data usage
In digital age, identity is the new money, and the owners of that data literally have the keys to the future. We are encoded, decoded into to a developing model with massive behaviours data from our trivial actions; every search, likes, post and digital footprints would be transformed into DNA pieces, then enriched into a multi-dimensions persona on cloud, but when being “watched” by spooky backstage programs, we also losing ownership of data. Embodied in:

‍
Rights to be informed, to interpret (express)
People are blindsided about which data being uploaded, acted upon, and even what they gonna be analysed into.
People feel insecure about being seen through by the excessive smart prediction; also feel annoyed about the imprecise judgments from biased data.
Rights to supervise, to interfere (participate)
Concept
“Cookie” Agent: Unleash data‘s performative capacity in open communication
To build trust and equal relationship in data interactions, human need to be enable to take the initiative rather than passively adopt the delivery of algorithms. The complexity of the data diagnosing process needs to be reversed into the “feedback” with transparency and comprehensibility. On the basis, the “feedforward” mechanism should be established for enabling user to first ADDRESS! then effectively negotiate with the algorithm, so as to make the data works and serves better in different motivations.

Gene Panel: Self-administrating fluid assembled personas in streamlined nexuses
A no-code visual terminal for triggering activation, the gene map that integrates persona data across platforms, reveals the core keywords and intricate relationships that define their digital identity. In dynamic genomes that structured with data volume, velocity, and value, user can quickly review, customise, and take control of their data—no longer bound by group biases from swarm-intelligence.  “It’s not just about understanding your data in a glance—it’s about delicately shaping your future digital feeds”
Ensure Data Value and Integrity → Gene Sequencing and Evolution Analysis
Enhance Data Value and Integrity → Gene Expression Regulation and “CRISPR” Genome Editing
Heuristic Configurator: Gene-based contextualising beyond inertial automation.
Self tuning brings data robustness, but overly personalised algorithms can trap users in endless loops (like cat videos), turning persona data into a barrier. For more retention, with this switch, users can take full control—deciding how and when their data is used. The gene panel becomes a reaction pool, using the known to explore the unknown, offering fresh perspectives while clearly defining the data scope for exploration. “It’s not just about breaking biases—it’s about subtly catalysing more new adaptive feeds.”

Explorative Workshop for Navigating Anchor
Orienting pivot node that influenced consistency in human-algorithm interaction
To understand the “undemocratic” algorithms, I conducted a workshop with frontline users taking "unfair recommendations" which triggered trust crisis as a starting point. Leveraging Google's personalisation tools, I analysed how personas are constructed by different datas types. Through simulation experiments, I observed how #hashtag are formed in data synthesising, and studied the growth patterns of data correlation, for further deducing the oblivious relationship between digital persona and data biases.

From quantitative to qualitative change, variables would becomes constants, then might expanding more variables. Active bias is a cocoon status reinforced by single user behaviour,  it also stimulate more passive bias which is a group stereotype imposed by algorithms. Referred to the “Bias-Variance Trade-off”, the narrowed design direction is to bring low bias experience in 2 approaches: more precise or more diverse; scoping on the co-interaction where bias formed and solidified.

Motivating easy self-concern operation for bias countering and sustainable integrity
The individual users are the victims of biased data and may also be the initial source, but the learning cost of algorithms is heavy for the general public, current "fight magic with magic" solutions (e.g. dummy data) only offer superficial relief. People feel their individual's strength is so limited to counterbalance the existing result from the mass.

Therefore, AI should be deployed strategically for sustainable integrity, making data in machine learning process more managable, turning individuals into contributors for helping eliminate algorithmic biases. By persona fine-tuning in data correlations to prevent groupthink and heuristic exploration that breaks through personal subjectivity, integrity could be developed organically.

In other words, empower human having better initiative on their data, to say, letting everyone have voice in AI era then action on challenging societal biases, benefiting not just themselves but all of us. This is the core purpose of this design.

Takeaway
AI is smarter than humans, but it’s human who truly bear the risks and consequences. How can we ensure the information that AI present for us is justice or without intentive selecting? From designer perspective, I believe the focus of AI design at the current phase should be to help people first adapting, then guiding them be more independent in AI allying, instead of being ruled by AI.
