How do you create a brand for a network of organizations that need to work together while maintaining their distinct identities? That was the challenge @GEI_GlobalEval at the @WorldBank brought to us. Our solution: a modular identity system that adapts as their global network

“You cannot unlock the power of intelligence without the right interface.” – @demishassabis on @lexfridman. This 💯. With our current focus on models we are overlooking how humans actually interact with AI. Demis thinks it is highly unlikely that we will still be using today’s

Trust is the design challenge of our time. We’re designing behaviors now, no longer static interfaces. Our founder @cms_ on why data visualization principles can guide us toward stable, trustworthy AI experiences.

In the era of AI, trust is the currency. We can no longer tell if images are AI-generated. Language models confidently hallucinate facts that don't exist. And every prompt yields different results. My new piece explores how the principles of data visualization can guide us in

🧵 @karpathy’s recent @ycombinator talk had a key takeaway about “partial autonomy” that perfectly captures where AI is heading—humans and AI working together, each contributing unique strengths. At @schemadesign, we’ve developed Seven Lenses to give designers tangible guidance

OpenAI quietly dropped a 34-page technical manual on building AI agents that 99% of people will never read. I spent 3 days coding every single pattern they revealed. Here's the practical guide to autonomous AI agents:🧵

Our team is exploring how AI tools can accelerate rapid prototyping of data-driven experiences. This is exactly what we mean by “Make to Learn” at Schema. @figma Make has been a great tool for this exploration. The future of human-AI collaboration in design is taking shape 🚀

🚀 Impressed by @figma Make’s potential for rapid prototyping. Built this interactive 3D globe mapping 250 largest cities by population + GDP with just a few prompts. The visual styling got surprisingly close to my vision. Early days but this feels like a glimpse into the

Jony Ive and @sama are building “quiet” AI hardware that could introduce computing’s fourth modality which some are also thinking of as #ZeroUI. But here’s what I think everyone’s missing: the real shift isn’t about eliminating interfaces—it’s about evolving from AI as a tool to

My takeaway from Christine Vallaure’s talk on creating @moonlearning at #Config2025: The rise of “designer as builder” 🚀 Modern tools let us go from mockups to implementation—coding, deploying & iterating without handoffs. We’re not just creating blueprints; we’re building

Great presentation at #Config2025 during the closing keynote from @heyjudesue (@theworldlabs) on trust as design's fundamental currency. Key insight: While we chase attention, TRUST is the real currency underlying successful products. Trust is earned. Trust is built over time.
