As artificial intelligence becomes a collaborator, critic, and co-conspirator in the creative process, the role of the designer is rapidly evolving. In this dynamic session, five visionary leaders at the forefront of design and technology will each share short, provocative presentations exploring how AI is reshaping our tools, our aesthetics, and our ethical frameworks.

Featuring David Hoang, Vice President of Design, AI at Atlassian; Chris Traganos, Head of Evangelism at Amazon Alexa; Elley Cheng, President of Pantone; and Jim Keen, Design Leader at Woods Bagot Architects; Will Hall, former Chief Product Officer at RAIN, this session offers a glimpse into the many futures of design—and the intelligence shaping them.

From immersive digital experiences to systems thinking, expect bold provocations, unexpected insights, and a reimagining of what it means to design in the age of AI.

QA and drinks to follow.
