GOOD DESIGN × AI: Sits at the crossroads of “making something people want” (real relevance) and “making lots of somethings” (generate-all-the-things). Thank you to Professor Hiroshi Ishii as the inspiration for my talk tomorrow at the MIT Media Lab Date: November 8 (Friday), 11am Boston time Talk info at MIT: https://lnkd.in/gJpKkeY8 Draft video link: https://lnkd.in/gRJmG78N (unlisted) --- Building A Hybrid Career Across Tech, Business, And Design. Or, ”How I Learned to Speak Human After Leaving MIT :-)” What happens when a computer science major steps out of MIT and into design, business, and leadership? In “How I Learned To Speak Human After Leaving MIT :-),” I’ll share how leaving the Media Lab in 2008 set me on an unexpected path—from advocating for the arts with the STEAM movement at RISD to navigating venture capital, startups, and industries of all scales. Does being a multidisciplinary “hybrid” thinker and doer enhance or limit one’s career prospects? Through insights from my own journey, I’ll explore the unique challenges and opportunities hybrids face today, offering key takeaways for those building careers across multiple disciplines. This talk brings my journey full circle—from the early foundations of AI in the 80s to the dawn of a new AI-powered industrial revolution. --- Related links: - “Design Against AI” / Design in Tech Report 2024 at SXSW?https://lnkd.in/gyWgpwQJ - “The Art and Craft of Business Resilience” / LinkedIn Learning?https://lnkd.in/g7caXnNZ - “Mr. Maeda’s Cozy AI Kitchen” / Learn LLM Coding Easy as CAIK?https://lnkd.in/e2yK8q6W - “Design, Business, Inclusion” / LinkedIn Learning?https://lnkd.in/gP-xA4YD - “How art, technology, and design inform creative leaders” / TED 2012?https://lnkd.in/gchm92ku

Energy corporation Vattenfall and design studio Superuse turned the top part of a wind turbine into a tiny house.? Called Nestle, the project creatively reimagines the nacelle, which is the top part of a wind turbine, converting it into a sustainable, compact living space that illustrates the potential of repurposing durable industrial materials in architecture. The nacelle, originally designed to house and protect turbine components, serves as a weatherproof living unit complete with a kitchenette, bathroom, and sleeping space.

Why Design should be in the boardroom We asked 22 leaders of the design and creative teams at NVIDIA, frog, ECCO, Wavemaker (part of WPP), who are graduates of our?Design Leaders programme, to share their perspectives on leading through design in today’s world and why they believe design is essential for driving business growth. We're excited to share their vision of how creativity can transform business and shape the future of leadership, to get you inspired to bring design into the boardroom of your company. ?? 'Design leaders bring a unique perspective and skill set to the boardroom, which can drive customer-centricity, innovation, brand value, and problem-solving. Their presence can help companies stay competitive and create compelling brand experiences for their customers. Creativity is truly becoming the number one metric in the business world today.' Ankur Srivastava, Co-Founder of Aesthetic Alchemists Design Studio ?? 'The successful C-suite needs a diversity of thought. And the world needs more radical, imaginative thinking to overcome some of the most pressing issues of our time. I believe both of these subjects can be supported by having more сreative leaders in the boardroom.' Lizi Hamer, Global Executive Creative Director at Octagon, Executive Creative Director?at No2ndPlace ?? 'Design is not just about aesthetics; it’s a holistic approach to solving complex problems.' Diana Barreto Lütgehetmann, Design Consultant ?? 'Design leaders do need to be in the boardrooms to advocate for the value of design and for those who do the hard creative work and deserve far more credit than they often receive.' Melissa Wakefield, Discipline Manager — Architecture at EXP ?? 'Design leaders need to be in the boardroom because design is a foundational aspect of everything that makes a business successful. Whether we are discussing a leave policy, a product, or a graphic, the way it is designed can make all the difference. We’re in such an interesting and complex moment in time that doesn’t quite look like the landscape we’re accustomed to. Old solutions are not likely to be today’s solutions. So, we need design leaders and thinkers now more than ever.'' JT Johnson, Co-Founder of The League ?? 'I believe that everyone in a boardroom should be a designer as well as their other role.' Heather Schoell, Creative AI Strategist, Senior Art Director and Curator at Nvidia ?? 'Design leaders must be in the boardroom and at the C-level, especially in non-tech companies, to defend a human impact and fight for an ethical approach.'
