  • Design systems and AI

    An interesting read from Brad Frost on how AI is influencing the evolution of design systems, highlighting the balance between automation and human creativity in crafting cohesive and scalable digital experiences.

    This stands out to me most:

    We still need critical thinking. Ethical thinking. Systematic thinking. We still need to foster relationships. To build bridges. To coordinate. To orchestrate. These are human things. These are the skills that designers and developers need to cultivate and grow in order to continue to be viable in our AI age.

    What do you think? Are these human things?

  • Good taste: the currency of the future

    This interview with David Lee, the CCO of Squarespace, poses an interesting question: Will AI make human creativity a luxury?

    Creativity is not just about technical skill or craft; it’s about identifying what resonates with people and captures the human experience. That is, taste.

    In today’s world, where AI is increasingly capable of creating art, music, and literature, taste matters more than ever. I agree with David here—taste is the currency of this inevitable future, which perhaps is already here.

    Good taste helps creatives produce resonate work that reflects personal style and originality. It involves a level of vulnerability, exposure to diverse influences, trusting instincts, and knowing when to follow or diverge from trends.

  • Build blocks with AI

    I made this video to showcase building a dynamic Gutenberg block with the help of artificial intelligence using ChatGPT.

    I run through how to scaffold a block using the wordpress/create-block package, structuring a dynamic block, building the block, and using ChatGPT to write an accompanying PHP function.
