Today, I’m breaking down the five biggest tech shifts from the past month that every designer should understand.

This isn’t just about headlines — it’s about how these changes are quietly transforming what it means to design user experiences.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Meta’s push toward wearable superintelligence — and what it means for designing beyond the screen

  • The U.S. strategy of AI deregulation — and how it shifts responsibility onto design teams

  • OpenAI’s rollout of GPT agents — and the rise of goal-based UX

  • Tesla’s $16.5B AI chip strategy — and what it means for UX in physical systems

  • And why some companies now pay $350K/year for AI-savvy designers

By the end, you’ll walk away with a clear, easy-to-digest overview of what’s changing — and how you can adapt your mindset and skillset to lead in this new era.
