What would you recommend if we talked over coffee? What questions would you ask? How would you use listening? How would you use silence? How is this scenario playing out in your mind and body?

Our distinguished guest, Akshay Kore, who has previously worked for Microsoft and is now Design Lead at Suki AI, shares his wisdom and insights drawn from his recent book, "Designing Human-Centric AI Experiences: Applied UX Design for Artificial Intelligence." Kore's narrative underscores the crucial balance between leveraging cutting-edge AI technologies and maintaining a steadfast commitment to human-centric design principles.

As generative AI reshapes the designer's toolkit, we examine the profound shift towards guiding these intelligent tools with precision and creativity.

This episode peers into the future, spotlighting how empathy and deep user testing skills will continue to play a crucial role in an industry at the cusp of transformation. "AI will be inevitable and important, and because it is going to be inevitable, it needs to be designed well, it needs to be built for people, and it also needs to be ethical and trustworthy for us to be able to use it well." – Akshay Kore Key Learnings from the Episode: · Discover how designers can align AI with human-centric design principles to create impactful user experiences. · Learn why the commoditization of design systems is transforming designers into directors of AI rather than mere creators. · Understand the significance of trust and reliability in AI systems, particularly in high-stakes user scenarios. · Explore the potential of AI-driven workflows and how they may redefine the roles of designers and product managers. · Uncover the skills designers need to hone to direct AI effectively, including prompt engineering and clear articulation. · Reflect on the importance of empathy in design and how it will shape the future of UX in the age of AI. · Gain insights into the ethical considerations and practical implications of integrating AI into the design process.

Join us in this fascinating journey of understanding how AI is reshaping UX and product design. “How do you make your product successful? It does things that no one else does. How do you, as a company, differentiate your products? And if you think you can leave it up to a couple of good prompts and a couple of companies, that's fine, because I bet you anything, the intention is to be just like everybody else, to get in the game and not be the player in the game, and that's differentiation versus third place and below” - Gavin Lew Key learnings and topics in this episode: AI's role in enhancing UX and product design workflows and user engagement. Refining data sets for better AI pattern recognition. Generative AI's use in dashboards and onboarding screens. The need for designers to trust and use AI effectively in their work.

Send us a text Eric Jordan, the founder of 2Advanced Studios, takes listeners on a very special journey through the early days of Flash website design and how it influenced his approach to designing world-renowned immersive web experiences that created hysteria during the early-mid 2000s. Eric reflects on the rise of 2Advanced and the impact of the projects the studio produced had on designers worldwide. Eric discusses the state of creativity today in developing immersive interactive experiences coupled with UX design, noting a lack of magic and rawness sometimes in experiences due to overly boxed-in processes and design templatization. “I wanted websites to feel like an experience. I didn't want it to feel like a corporate website. That's not interesting to me. I want it to be emotional. I want it to be like a film we can kind of talk about. When I built the 2Advanced websites, I was kind of in this elevated state of consciousness at the time, just in terms of the music I was listening to and what I was going through spiritually.” However, he expresses excitement about new tools and technologies that are emerging to break this trend and shares his passion for collaborating on projects that are trying to change the world in big ways. This podcast is a must-listen for anyone interested in the history and future of website and UX design. Key learnings and topics in this episode: Learn about the rise of 2Advanced Studios in the 2000s, the impact of studio projects, and the depth of creativity and design Remember Flash?
