new Dutch PM👇

AI MVP — shipping a feature that works about 40% of the time, branding the remaining 60% as “AI-powered future optimization.” Proactive UX — deploying a digital assistant that would create fake bank accounts for the entire country’s population to exceed business KPIs.

Intelligent interface — an interface so smart it manages to guess exactly what you didn’t want to do, and then immediately does it for you. Holistic experience design — drawing a massive flowchart of every possible touchpoint to fix the button color on the login screen.

Customer journey orchestration — drawing a huge map of steps no one follows to pretend that you are in control of the entire experience. Predictive usability — a method to learn that your users will struggle anyway, without any real user actually shouting at you.

Vibe designer — a digital fortuneteller who uses magic AI spells to summon ready-made designs. AI UX optimization — asking AI to polish trivial details, but look how stakeholders enjoy your “usability improved by 5% in October” kind of KPIs.

Generative personas — a method of generating user profiles until their needs and pain points match the product idea you have in mind. Hyper-personalized experience — tasking AI with painting the dashboard in the user’s favorite color and greeting them with “Hello, <username>!”

Synthetic research — a practice of saving several hours on scheduling research sessions, which helps you arrive at all your biases and assumptions faster. AI prototyping — feeding prompts to an AI output lottery while telling stakeholders you are “exploring multiple solutions.”

AI UX — a practice of replacing every input field, table, and button with an AI chatbot bearing an “inclusive” yet catchy human name. AI-first designer — a professional who ensures that every UX decision is backed by data, except the decision to use AI in the first place.

📖 Are you also a bit lost in this modern terminology? I’ve made a small glossary that might help. Enjoy! AI-driven designer — a digital expert who asks an LLM to draw rectangles instead of drawing rectangles themselves.

The best ideas often emerge over after-work drinks with fellow UXers! Last Wednesday, a new meme was born. Expecto dashboardum, folks! 🪄✨🦌

1/5 Russia's war on Ukraine is as black and white as it gets. It is not morally complicated. It is one of the clearest cases of good vs evil in recent history. Russia is the aggressor. Ukraine is the victim. No gray area. No equivalence. Just a criminal invasion
