What do you think about Gen AI for design and delivering better user experiences?

Artificial Intelligence is here to stay, but what exactly is it's role in disrupting product and UX design — or better put, how can you embrace and leverage it in your workflow as a UX designer?

With new rollouts of Gen AI tools that push the boundaries of iterative design and rapid prototyping, it is important that we begin paying attention and readjusting to what these are and how we can optimize them in order to stay on the cutting edge.

With this presentation, I hope to overview the newest Figma AI updates/features announced at the just concluded Config 2024, as well as other emerging tools and platforms to better augment the UX workflow: Gemini, MidJourney, Uizard, Framer, Galileo AI, and good 'ol ChatGPT among others.

Finally, I'll address where anyone can even start learning about what Gen AI can do for us as UX designers, and invite reflections and feedback from the audience as to the future of Gen AI in UX design.
