Outro

AI is fundamentally shifting the way we think about digital products and the core deliverables that we're bringing to the table as designers.

So I asked Geoffrey Litt (https://x.com/geoffreylitt) (Design Engineer at Notion) to share his vision for the future of malleable software and AI system design.

Here’s some highlights:

- The keys to effective system design

- Geoffrey’s workflow for “working like a surgeon”

- Why too many products become “nightmare bicycles”

- The principles of malleable software vs. disposable software

- Why version control is the most important AI interaction problem

- Inside Geoffrey’s malleable software experiments at Ink & Switch
