AI can generate copy and visuals fast, but it can't handle the contextual complexity of UX design. Building dashboards that balance user research, stakeholder goals, and brand consistency still requires a human. That's why UX design is one of the last roles AI won't automate away.

What's your take on AI in UX design? I think AI is, uh, is starting to become more and more into the design space. I haven't seen anything that's been like, uh-oh, design UX is gonna go. Uh, I think there's a lot of contextual information for products that make AI much harder to like to crank out designs. Like if I was to say, hey, I want a design, I think a lot of businesses have, uh, too many complexities. Uh, now certain, certain, some certain, uh, industries like e-com sites or certain sites that are very, uh, like there's a lot of them. Now those might be easier if you're designing a portfolio or just an informational site. AI will be very, very interesting how, uh, how that helps and plays with design. Uh, but I do think content is gonna be big for AI. So writing, visual styles, imagery, things like that is where there'll be a lot of AI already is, but I don't know how much I believe that AI will come design a dashboard for looking at this that has also ingested the research that's done from the users and knows what these stakeholders want and keeps the branding. I just think there's so many pieces of the puzzle that I don't think AI is at that level yet. And I think UX is the, is like the ultimate area that like AI won't take their job. I think AI is gonna be able to take most people's jobs, whether it's developer or product manager. But I think design, as the one who has to kind of sift through all these and actually make decisions on, on direction, like on what the design's gonna look like, I think that's where, that's like the safest, if you will. Like I think that's gonna be the last to go out of all the, the jobs that AI can take.
