I’m reading a lot into one little quote about @penpot.app’s approach to AI…

And I think Penpot still has a long way to go to compete…

But I think their willingness to say their approach aligns more with ML than the newest buzzword, takes courage and brings me hope.

But still, that’s no reason to use AI (or any anticipatory design approach), to avoid building in good user tune-ability.

To be fair, that lazy design approach has been happening for a long time (most notably for me when iTunes supplanted Winamp, and then even more when Spotify supplanted iTunes), and AI does actually get this approach closer to a functional version of the promise.

AI can also be used to create one size fits all bullshit…
“Instead of giving you better controls and more intuitive customise-ability, we’re gone claim that AI will make those decisions (that you want to make) for you…
…Rather than doing the needed UI and UX work.
