UX/Design Track: Design Prototyping for Emerging Technologies

This talk will explore the crucial role that design prototyping methodologies can, should and will play when it comes to uncovering the fuzzy map of emerging technology and shaping the future of ubiquitous XR; wearable AI; and spatial computing. Through a mix of seemingly tangential sci fi references, design principles, and realworld case studies, we’ll delve into the importance of lo-fi to hi-fi prototyping and development platforms as a means to turn speculative designs into innovation.

UX/Design Track: Beyond the Panic: Why Designers Still Matter in an AI-Driven World
We’ve all seen the headlines: AI is coming for your job. But the truth is, AI isn’t replacing designers – it’s raising the floor and ceiling of what we can do. Last year at Config, Figma’s CEO shared a vision of the future where more people become designers, and more designers step into code. Now, with tools like Bolt and V0, that vision is rapidly becoming reality.
In this talk, Ahmed and Ben share practical, real-world ways AI is helping designers work smarter, faster, and with more creative confidence. You’ll see how AI is not the end of our craft – it’s the evolution of it. Let’s stop chasing AI, and start using it to lead.

UX/Design Track: How AI is rewriting product and design collaboration

AI and automation are changing the way we work, the once-clear lines between product management and design are becoming increasingly fluid. Drawing on real examples from our work at Make, we’ll share practical insights into how product and design teams can harness AI to work more seamlessly – from ideation through execution. You’ll hear how we’ve integrated automation and applied AI into our processes, what’s worked well, and which missteps to avoid. This talk will equip you with tangible strategies for using AI not as a replacement, but as a powerful tool to amplify human creativity, and ultimately deliver products your customers will love.
