Talk 1: Design, but make it real.
by Julian Garcia
Software design roles have emerged & expanded alongside shifting economic & organizational demands. In the early days of software, programmers handled nearly all aspects of product creation. Over time, specialized design roles formed around interaction, research, & experience, & today those roles are shifting once again. In this talk, we'll explore how design work is evolving as the use of code & generative AI tools become standard.
Julian Garcia is a product designer & engineer based in New York.
Talk 2: The design process is dead. Here's the new one.
by Aleksei Kipin
AI makes generating design options cheap & fast, breaking the old artifact-driven workflow. We'll discuss what's fading in the traditional process, what's replacing it, & which skills matter most now.
Aleksei Kipin is a Product Designer with nearly two decades of experience across graphic & product design. He has led teams at startups in Singapore & at a major tech company, & now works in New York on AI-driven recruiting products.
