We're recording live from Lisbon at the exceptional Productized conference — an inspiring, high-calibre gathering for product people. We're honoured to partner with Productized for the third year running and grateful for their commitment to building a thoughtful, practical community in Europe and beyond.

In this Talk in Ten, we sit down with Davide Colla (Creative Director, Milan) as he explores the hard, human feelings that come when AI starts doing the creative work you love. This short, candid conversation moves from novelty and threat to adaptation and partnership with AI.

Key topics discussed

Personal vulnerability onstage: why sharing the emotional journey matters
Early novelty of AI image tools and the moment it stopped being ‘just fun’
How AI replaced parts of creative workflows — and what that felt like
Practical ways creatives can work with AI rather than against it
Commercial implications: pricing, client expectations and agency workflows
