S4-E2: AI in UX Research - The Illusion of Understanding
Episode 2
Tuesday, 26 May, 2026

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, Dr. Emmanuelle Savarit explores one of the most subtle risks emerging as AI becomes embedded into research workflows: the illusion that faster outputs automatically mean deeper understanding.As AI increasingly supports recruitment, synthesis, reporting, and analysis, researchers gain speed and efficiency — but may also begin trusting polished outputs too quickly.This episode explores:How AI-generated summaries can reduce critical questioningWhy repeated patterns are not always meaningful insightsThe difference between processed evidence and raw evidenceHow analytical judgement can weaken when researchers move too far from the underlying dataWhy AI should remain an assistant, not the final authorityThis is not an argument against AI, but a call to use it consciously, critically, and responsibly.Because in the AI era, the value of the researcher will not simply be producing outputs faster, but preserving judgment, nuance, and depth.#UXResearch #AI #ResearchLeadership #AIEthics #UserResearch #ResponsibleAI🎤 Upcoming events:UX360 Research Summit Europe 2026 — Berlin, June 23–2415% discount for UX Research Club listeners with code: UXRC15Link to buy your ticket📖 The UX Research Powerhouse, Vol. 1 — The Foundation of UX Research Strategic LeadershipLaunching in November 2025, A playbook and manifesto for research leaders, with a 365-day leadership roadmap, tools to measure impact, and a bonus chapter on AI. 📘 Get the book on Amazon: here Emmanuelle's LinkedIn Instagram If you want to support the UX Research club, you can write a review, share it with your network, give some stars or buy me a coffee Thank you for listening and supporting the UX Research Club
