Service Design Disrupted Conference , Barcelona, October 15, 16 2026. We offer 10% off all SD Disrupted conference tickets in our 'Partners' section. Join to access. → Most of our systems are built for the average person. Dr Jutta Treviranus has spent more than forty years showing why that fails everyone else, and how AI can accelerate the gap. In this episode of This is HCD, Hyun Song sits down with Jutta, founder and director of the Inclusive Design Research Centre at OCAD University and chair of the technical committee behind Canada's new accessible AI standard. They explore her Human Starburst model of human difference, why systems built for the average break down at the edges where people with disability sit, and what it takes to design for that difference rather than design it out.
