Step 1: Understanding prediction accuracy
In order to design an experience communicating what prediction accuracy is I needed to understand what it is myself. It was explained by the AI company as a "prediction certainty". For example, say the algorithm predicted the baby would wake up in 2 hours, it could assign let's say a 20% certainty meaning the algorithm was 20% certain that the baby would wake up in two hours. Things that could affect the certainty levels included amount of data, quality of data, and time. In terms of time, they explained that at the beginning of a nap the prediction might be 2 hours and 20 minutes with 20% certainty but after 2 hours elapsed, an updated prediction might show 15 minutes until wake is predicted with 80% accuracy.
