Workshop Overview
As product teams race to include AI in their products, they too often rely on good old-fashioned patterns like an assistant or chatbot. However, this experience is often painfully slow, responses are generic, and users have to meticulously explain to AI what they need — over and over.
In this full-day workshop with Vitaly Friedman, senior UX consultant with the European Parliament and creative lead of Smashing Magazine, we'll explore brand new design patterns for better AI experiences, with daemons, clustering, style lenses, structured presets and templates, dynamic editing, temperature knobs and everything in-between!
