AI is changing how we design — not by replacing designers, but by removing the parts we never enjoyed in the first place.

Today, AI can churn out user interfaces in seconds. That shift opens up a bigger opportunity: designers finally get to spend more of their time on judgment, clarity, systems thinking, and problem-solving instead of pushing pixels.

In this session, Aravind, Head of Product Design at Zuper, shares how his small team works like a startup inside a larger company — designing for smart glasses, building with AI, and rethinking how field service teams get work done at scale. He’ll break down how AI helps them skip the repetitive chores, move faster, and focus on decisions that actually shape the product.

What you’ll get from this session:

✨ A practical look at how AI elevates everyday design workflows

💡 How to separate “UI output” from real design thinking

⚡ Examples of using AI to speed up exploration, iteration, and system-level work

🧠 Why the future of design is about judgment, not screens
