About us
UX for AI - Pune & Mumbai is a Dreamworx community for professionals exploring how UX, Product Thinking and Experience Management are evolving in the age of AI.
As AI becomes part of the software development lifecycle, the role of UX is expanding beyond interfaces—to understanding the right problems, designing human-AI interactions, building trust, validating AI outcomes, enabling human control, and creating products that deliver real user and business value.

• UX for AI & AI-Augmented UX
• UX within AI SDLC
• Human-Centered AI & Agentic UX
• UX Research, Validation & Usability
• Product & Experience Management

Register for the UX for AI SDLC MasterclassAI products don't fail only because the technology fails.
They can fail because teams solve the wrong problem, AI lacks the right context, users don't trust its decisions, human control is unclear, or the system simply doesn't create enough real-world value.
This masterclass explores how UX, product thinking and human-centered design can become an integral part of AI product development—not something added after the AI has already been built.## Questions We'll Explore
What changes when AI becomes part of the product—and sometimes starts making decisions or taking actions on behalf of users?
We'll explore questions such as:- Are we solving the right problem with AI?
- What decision is the AI actually helping the user make?
- What context does AI need to make useful decisions?
- What happens when AI is wrong?
- Why can a highly accurate AI still create a poor product experience?
- How much autonomy should an AI agent have?
- Where should humans approve, override or intervene?
- How do we design trust, control and explainability?
- And importantly, where should UX professionals contribute across AI SDLC?
## Beyond Screens & Interfaces
UX for AI is not only about designing a chatbot, copilot or AI interface.
As AI becomes more autonomous, UX increasingly involves designing:
Human-AI workflows • Decisions • Context • Trust • Control • Failure & Recovery • Adoption • Business Outcomes
The masterclass will introduce you to the emerging Dreamworx UX for AI SDLC framework and show how familiar UX and product practices need to evolve for AI-enabled products.## Who Should Attend?
For professionals involved in designing, building, testing or managing AI-enabled products, including:
UX/UI & Product Designers • UX Researchers • Product Managers • Business Analysts • Developers • QA/Test Professionals • Product & Technology Teams • Startup Founders • IT Professionals
You don't need to be an AI expert.
This is not a prompt-engineering or AI-tools session. It is about developing the UX and product thinking needed to build useful, trustworthy and valuable AI-enabled products.## About the Facilitator

If AI is changing how products are built, perhaps the bigger question isn't:
“How do I use more AI?”
It is:### “How do we make sure we're building the right AI experience in the first place?”
Join the upcoming FREE UX for AI SDLC Masterclass to explore where UX belongs in this new development lifecycle.
AI gives speed. UX gives direction.
If AI is changing how products are built, the bigger question may not be:
“How do I use more AI?”
but:
“How do we make sure we're building the right AI experience in the first place?”
