AI seems to be everywhere these days—rewriting how we work, create, and even think. But is AI just another buzzword or if there's something truly magical happening behind the scenes?
In this week's Coffee and UX, join me and Deepti Wilson –two (curious) product designers– for a raw, unfiltered conversation on AI, where we break down its impact and talk how it's going to change the way we design, build, and collaborate.
We’ll deep dive into some of the big questions that UX designers and tech industry is grappling with today:
🤖 What excites us (and concerns us) about AI?
⚙️ How are we actually using AI in our workflows today?
🚀 Is AI just another trend—or a paradigm shift like we’ve never seen before?
📐 How might AI change the role of a designer—or the skills we’ll need?
🌍 What broader shifts might we see in our industry, or even society at large?After the conversation, we’ll open up the floor for a casual Q&A with everyone attending. This is for designers who are curious, maybe even conflicted, about AI. If you’ve been watching this space and wondering, “what does this mean for me?”— this session is for you.
