Redefining UX Design in the Age of Generative AI
Numerous professions are facing a coming reckoning due to the influence of AI, ML, and generative technology. Design is by no means immune. While generative AI is still in its infancy and designers can't be strictly bypassed by running to ChatGPT, Bard, Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, and so forth, those who choose to remain in this profession will need to position themselves through a skillset that these platforms will *always* struggle to model.
