The most important design decision you can make in 2026

Choosing how to design with AI is the most important design decision you can make in 2026.

If you agree, you should submit a case study to Designing with AI 2026!

Here's what I mean:

Whether or not we choose to use AI ourselves, we’re already living in a world where product design has fundamentally changed.

Non-designers can produce wireframes in seconds.

Non-researchers can generate multi-page reports, for the cost of a prompt.

Are these artifacts “good enough?” Or are they doing more harm than good?

If you care about advancing UX in 2026, you should be thinking about where AI tools are safe to use, where they’re not, and how to tell the difference (for yourself, and your stakeholders!).

This is the most important conversation we’re having as UX/product practitioners in 2026, and we’d like to invite you to be a part of it.

If you have a case study about where you’re using AI in product creation, we’d love to hear from you! Deadline is Sunday 1/25.
