AI in the Designer’s Toolkit: Accelerating Ideas to Impact

Join Jake Flowers, Product Designer at Cabin, for a happy hour and practical session on how AI is changing the way designers work, ideate, and create user experiences without losing the human touch.

Great experiences aren’t built by AI alone—they’re built by designers who know how to use AI as a partner. But how do you work with these tools in a way that accelerates your process while keeping empathy at the heart of what you create? How do you prompt AI to go beyond the obvious and support real human needs in your designs?

In this session, Jake will share how to integrate AI into your workflow to speed up ideation, content generation, and explanation. We’ll explore how to craft effective prompts, translate abstract ideas into actionable outputs, and use AI to clear the path for more meaningful design decisions. Throughout, we’ll focus on how to keep the user at the center, ensuring that every AI-assisted output still reflects genuine human insight.

This isn’t just a talk; it’s an invitation to our design community to explore a new way of working. If you’re a designer, strategist, or product leader ready to embrace AI thoughtfully and create faster without sacrificing empathy, you’re welcome to join!
