AI Ethics for Designers π₯
Dear Reader,
You can use generative AI ethically.
To date, I haven't heard a sound approach for dealing with the ethics of Chat GPT, so I was keen to hear this month's meetup, AI Ethics for Designers, by Pete Armitage...especially since Pete is a UX writer.
How would an ethics expert and UX writer think about Chat GPT?
Check out the video for yourself:

My takeaways:
- Without transparency reports, ethics commitments are hollow
- We should hold AI tools to higher standards than humans
- Anonymize your Chat GPT data with Amnesiaβ

Oppenheimer and Barbie premiere tonight, and somebody finally made a "Barbenheimer" trailer:
βWatch the Barbenheimer trailer hereβ
Some people suggest seeing both movies in one night, and there are guides about which order to see them and why. I think it's safe to say this "double-premiere" thing was an organic meme thing because the studios don't appear to have really embraced it. I shudder to think of the marketing execs meeting in board rooms to plan co-premieres at this very moment. I kinda feel like anyone that watches Barbie and Oppenheimer on the same night is going to get a raw glimpse into the belly of the beast that is late-stage capitalism. Which brings me to my next question: are you more of a Barbie or an Oppenheimer person?

5 Signals the UX of AI Is Changing by Jeff Humble Dear Reader, The AI landscape is changing fast, and the way we interact with AI is changing even faster. Who knows what the UX of AI will be in 2035? Right now, most of us talk to AI through clunky, chat-based interfaces. But new hardware hints at something more human and ambient. Today, I want to share 5 signals: surprising examples from today that suggest where the future might end up, and a method used by future foresight professionals....
When Your Strategy Slides Hit Silence By Hannah Baker Dear Reader, Iβve shared strategy before, and watched it stall. Not because it was wrong. But because the room didnβt know what to do with it. I wasnβt looking for feedback. I wasnβt asking for approval. I was hoping theyβd pick it up and run with it. Instead? Confusion. Silence. They didnβt see what I saw. Not because they didnβt care. But because Iβd built the strategy, not the on-ramp they needed to step into it. Itβs something Iβve...
Let's Talk about Liquid Glass by Jeff Humble Dear Reader, Goodbye, paper-like design. Hello, moving blobs of liquid glass! Play button blunder from Apple Apple's new paradigm in aesthetics is both cool and potentially awful at the same time. "Rather than trying to simply re-create a material from the physical world, Liquid Glass is a new digital meta-material that dynamically bends and shapes light." -Apple Just when you thought skeuomorphism was dead, it rears its realistic head again.
