Raise the ceiling: how to scale intent, quality, and artistry with Al | Katie Dill (Stripe)

Katie Dill from Stripe discusses how the rapid advancements in AI risk leading to "zombie UI" – generic, uncared-for digital products. She draws parallels to post-WWII architecture, highlighting the dangers of building without intentionality or a clear point of view. Dill then offers four key recommendations for developers and designers to leverage AI not just for speed, but to create original, soulful, and user-centric products: defining a strong point of view, encoding quality standards directly into AI tools, embracing meticulous editing beyond the first AI-generated draft, and actively using AI to foster new forms of creativity and unique interfaces.
