Key Highlights:

• Ever pondered about the shift from designing for low-cost manufacturing to designing for experience? Kevin and I unpack this transformation, revealing some fascinating insights.
• We explore the critical relationship between physical manufacturing and design, the ripple effect it has on creative thinking, and the need for youngsters to grasp materials and processes better.
• Kevin paints a captivating picture of where the global supply chain stands. We touch on manufacturing dynamics, onshoring, and the future prospects of relocating manufacturing hubs to regions like Vietnam and Mexico. 🌐🔄
• AI lovers, this one’s for you! 💡 Dive with us into the AI realm, from its infancy to its potential in product design and development. Kevin sheds light on AI as an 'input tool' and its profound implications on search and visualization.
