Talks

This post is based on a workshop given on 24th September 2026 at design+AI.

Building a working prototype with AI is easy now: ask Claude to build you something cool and it will. Shipping that prototype, so that it is live and useful and does not fall over, is a different problem. On Thursday I spent a morning in Brighton with a room of designers and product people working through the practices engineers rely on to make that second part possible. We did not write any code ourselves. The agent did all of that. Our job is simply knowing what to ask for.
