Data-driven design is believed to be empowered by machine learning (ML) with advanced pattern classification and prediction. However, research on how ML can be used to support automotive human-machine interface (HMI) design is lacking. We presented a case study of truck HMI design to understand the current data use and expectations of ML in the design process. Findings show decentralized data practices, the role of expertise in decision-making, and the envisioned reactive use of ML, where we underscore the implications for advancing human-ML collaboration in designing future truck HMI systems.
