Worth mentioning that this is an exploration; I have complicated, mixed feelings about AI, especially applied to faith. Much longer convo than I can have on Twitter. I'd love to hear from anyone with either product feedback or thoughtful, critical viewpoints.

Memory lane: I probably owe my whole career to this moment of @gmurphy taking a chance on me as a new grad. 🥲

Okay, literally the most basic design truth ever, but even ten years into doing this, I find myself struck by this example: How something looks affects can make all the difference in how it's perceived.
This designer learned the hard way that making designs too beginner friendly can alienate professional users So he redesigned the entire app in Figma to make it feel professional 🤯 @lorenbaxter shows how he redesigned @felt in @figma 👇

“Our strategy: Do the same thing as everyone else but make it _feel_ different”
I don’t think it’s possible to make a compelling pitch deck for a consumer social app. Describing your idea with slides will make you sound like a mental patient. Real investors know that if it works it’s because of 100 tiny decisions—not an audacious vision. You’re better off

Trying to jot down my work principles. Here's what I got. 1. What ships matters more than perfect design artifacts.
