Using an LLM as a Domain Expert

Download LLM Context File Link to Example Conversation

• Participants can use an LLM as a simulated domain expert during the tutorial in order to get the design requirements.
  • Before starting, participants should give the LLM the provided embryologist context file.
  • The context file instructs the LLM to act as an embryologist who needs help designing a visualization decision-support tool for embryo selection.
  • Participants can then directly ask the domain expert questions about the workflow, decisions, criteria, uncertainty, and design needs.
  • There is also an example conversation with the LLM linked above. You an use this as a point of reference of the kind of questions you can ask.
  • I used Gemini as my domain expert, which I would recommend, but you can use any of the latest LLM models.
• During the problem definition stage, participants should ask the domain expert about the decision problem before discussing interface ideas.
  • What embryo-selection decision needs to be made?
  • Which embryos are being compared?
  • What information matters?
  • What criteria or thresholds are used?
  • What makes a case uncertain?
  • What smaller decisions happen before the final selection?
  • What needs to be documented at the end?
• During the design construction stage, participants can ask the domain expert about visualization and interaction preferences.
  • What comparisons would be useful?
  • What information should appear side by side?
  • What would make the tool misleading?
  • What kinds of uncertainty should be visible?
  • What should the final selection rationale include?
