okay so AI can literally read our minds now. a team from osaka was able to reconstruct visual images from mri scan data using stable diffusion. first row is the image presented to the test subject, second row is the reconstructed image from mri data. wild.

A lot of designers focus their energy on creating the best user experience possible. This often results in improving the experience for non paying customers (especially in freemium products) or in areas which might improve sentiment but don’t drive business outcomes.

During lectures, I switched from asking "does anyone have a question before I move on?" to telling "someone ask me a question before I move on" and it is so simple but SUCH a game changer. #AcademicTwitter

Managing is designing. Except instead of designing products, interfaces or services, you are designing how a group of people can create something more together than apart. Which people are needed? Who should do what? How do folks collaborate? These are design questions.
