Design teams have never had more raw power. Thanks to AI, prototypes that once took weeks now take hours, and the line between designers and engineers is blurring.

But faster execution doesn’t automatically lead to better products. Many teams are simply building the wrong things faster, wasting time, energy, and tokens in the process.  

When almost anything can be built, the real challenge becomes deciding what’s actually worth building. That still depends on research, judgment, vision, and the messy upstream work of understanding people. 

In this episode of Delivered, Alexander Zeh, Head of Product Design at Manychat, joins us to discuss how design leaders can help teams avoid the trap of mistaking speed for progress.

Key learnings:

  • Discover how AI is changing product design and what your focus should be
  • Understand the role of the design leader in the AI-accelerated world 
  • Learn what the most underrated design leadership skill is
  • Find out why hiring for job titles is the wrong approach, and what to do instead
