Do you design for other people or for yourself? I’ve met both kinds but for myself, I always believed that designers exist to make things better for people, not to make other designers fall in love with you. Although I met those too.

Counter productively to what one needs from ones team, the best advice one can give to a junior designer is to not stick around all too long.

Dear designers of all calibres and ages. Don’t do the work you believe is within the compensation you receive. Do the work you need to do, to get to where you want to be. Because at the end of it all the only person you work for is yourself.

I think it’s necessyfor companies like Apple to set the standard for what everyone wants but they need to be kept in check by third parties who give us what want. Studio display a case in point.

It just occurred to me that ‘Smartness’ will become the way pay tiers are ordered for #ai as a service. The more you pay, the more up to date model you get. Just like iCloud. But instead of more data, you get more intelligence.

I have to say, I’ll be interested to see how Elon’s case study works out for the branding of X. If recklessly changing the brand from Twitter to X causes no impact then the whole idea of brand equity is called into question.

Quite an emotional moment happened tonight, thanks to #NanobananaAI. My Dad had a brother who tragically died in a motorcycle accident when he was 17. I asked Nano Banana to bring this picture to life and he bawled with emotion, seeing his brother for the first time in 60 years.
