The Brief
What you'll do, and what you'll demonstrate.
Generate actionable, customer-facing counterfactual explanations for motor-insurance pricing that respect feature mutability and consumer comprehension.
This is not a design exercise. It is the work a product designer does between a brief and a shipped interface. That distinction matters to every hiring manager who has seen candidates redesign Spotify's homepage and none who have worked under real product constraints.
When you finish, you will have something most graduates do not: a real-world deliverable, verified by Ewance, that you can show to a hiring manager and say "I did this. Here is the proof."
Earning criteria — what you'll demonstrate
- Generate diverse, actionable counterfactual explanations
- Encode mutability and reasonable-bound constraints in the search
- Design a JSON contract that a frontend team can implement against
- Translate model-explanation outputs into consumer-grade copy
