What you'll learn

Use AI to raise design quality, not just output volume

Learn a practical 3-phase workflow (grounding, reasoning, prototyping) to expand exploration breadth and depth.

Keep human judgment at the center of faster workflows

Understand where AI helps most, where it misleads, and how to avoid idea overload and plausible-but-weak directions.

Adapt to the new design practice in big tech

See tighter designer-engineer loops, new design artifacts, and a move from static deliverables toward interactive ones.

Why this topic matters

Designing for new domains takes time to ramp up. This talk introduces a practical AI-powered workflow that helps designers consolidate knowledge, reason faster, and prototype in parallel—turning 30 minutes of sequential exploration into 5 minutes of multi-option output, and increasing design exploration efficiency by up to 10X.
