We're safe from getting pinched by wearing our classic truematter green. We're also safe from users pinching us because we always advocate for their needs. Keep the leprechauns at bay and your users happy by learning the basic principles of UX with our short and simple reading list. https://lnkd.in/g7fj_9vR #HappyStPatricksDay

?? AI is seeping into our everyday technologies. ?? While AI continues to get better everyday and changes the way we interact with technology, it is not the catch-all solution to our big UX problems. At the end of the day, we still need a human touch to create intuitive, human-centered experiences. https://lnkd.in/gUgxQ6TF

WOW! We had an amazing evening last Thursday at our UXSC event, "Getting Started in User Experience." A few thank yous to everyone who made this evening possible: - Our panelists Bryce Christian, Tyler Trotter, Ehsan Mohammadi, and Dezhi Wu. Your insight and experience into the UX field was truly eye-opening. - Greg Hilton and SOCO for having us once again in their wonderful space. SOCO did a tremendous job helping us set up and prepare for the event. - YOU. We loved seeing our UX community and without your passion for UX this wouldn't be possible. We're looking forward to seeing everyone again at our upcoming UX Happy Hour in March and at our next UXSC event, currently slated for August.
