Working a full-time job that doesn’t allow you to explore AI, let alone have the energy to know where to start?

You’re not alone. With new tools and techniques emerging each week, I also found it challenging to keep up. So I thought, what if there was a place to freely explore concepts to learn myself and help designers figure out how to design AI first products along the way.

I’m Joe, a Design founder of a 10 year old B2B Influencer marketing SaaS platform. I’ve helped teach Principal designers and Chief Product Officers how to prototype and code at companies like Dropbox, Airbnb, Uber, Pinterest, Lyft, and more. I’d like to do the same again, but for AI.

I’ll give you an inside peek at AI experiments, curate and share what designers are tinkering with in AI, and this blog will evolve into a comprehensive course designed for those who want to become AI-first designers and build great AI native products. Whether you’re just looking to explore AI tools, understand their applications, or prototype cutting-edge AI products, I aim to make this your go-to resource.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Real experiments: Inside look at how AI can be used to take an idea and prototype it with AI, including prompts.

  • Curated Resources: Access a comprehensive list of tools, interviews from top designers, and insights on AI-driven design.

  • Community: Connect with fellow designers, share experiences, and collaborate on exploring new design tools together.

  • Direct Access: Get direct access to me for guidance, discussions, and insights as you navigate your AI design journey.

While we’re starting with shared learnings, experiments, and resource curation, the vision is to evolve into a structured course that empowers you to build AI-native products.
