Watch Jeff's Intro to UX Strategy πΊby Jeff Humble Dear Reader, A few weeks ago, I gave a talk on UX strategy that I'd like to share with you, newsletter subscribers, because you're just the best.

P.S. Only one week left to join Defining UX Strategy, the last Fountain Institute course of 2025! Ask your boss for the budget before enrollment closes on Oct. 10th! |

7 Tells that a UI is AI-Generated by Jeff Humble Dear Reader, You can see a vibe-coded app from a mile away, if you know what to look for. Here are seven design patterns that scream amateur vibe coder. Learn them, avoid them, and stay above the rising tide of slop, my friends. 1. Neon color palette from IceWhistle If it's vibe-coded, it's gotta be neon. To slop this one up to the max, use 5+ neon colors and never pick a single one to focus.
