The tools got easier. The thinking didn't.
A short-form talk series where designers share what they're actually thinking about right now. That might be a side project mid-build, a hot take on where the industry is headed, a decision they're still sitting with, or a story they've never told in a room like this.
Four speakers. Ten to fifteen minutes each. Then the room.
May's lineup
Alex Kehr, founder of Superlocal, on exploring injecting your design preferences into AI coding tools / taste app
Lois Yang, founding designer at stealth startup, on reinventing yourself in the age of AI
Vlad Georgescu, co-founder and designer at Bike for the Mind, on herding agents toward a shared goal
Yitong Zhang, cofounder and designer @runneragent, on design post-third impact

Art and Culture
tiat is a new media art and technology space in San Francisco’s Union Square, in the retail podium of the Herbert Hotel. The main level is a straightforward white-walled gallery with room for projections, screens, and sculptural pieces, plus a smaller side nook that often feels like a quieter corner to read wall text or talk between sets. The crowd tends to skew creative and techy, with a mix of artists, engineers, and students who are used to beta products and works in progress. more...
