BUILDING A CAREER THAT SURVIVES AI
Details
AI is changing the way we design, build, and think about products faster than any technological shift before it. But the real question isn’t “Will AI take jobs?”
The real question is:
How do we build careers that remain valuable because of AI?
This workshop is an open, thoughtful conversation about what it actually takes to stay relevant, creative, and strategically valuable in an AI-driven world.
We’ll explore three key pillars:
Foundations
Why strong fundamentals in design, systems thinking, and problem solving matter more than ever in the age of AI.
Fluency
Understanding and experimenting with emerging tools, technologies, and workflows — without becoming dependent on them.
Differentiation
What truly sets professionals apart: product thinking, data-driven design, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and strategic perspective.

This is not a lecture.
It’s a live conversation with the community.
After the main session, we will open the room for a 15–20 minute brainstorming discussion where students, designers, recruiters, engineers, and product thinkers can exchange ideas and perspectives.
