📣 Ahem... a little louder for the stakeholders in the back.

"You look happier." Thanks. I figured out how to auto-decline all of the meetings that get booked over my calendar blocks for lunch.

I attended a Dscout webinar today regarding the integration of AI into the UXR workflow. Awesome presentation of Rose B.'s M.A.S.T.E.R. framework for AI integration. The talk was very well moderated by Colleen Pate and I think one strong takeaway that I grabbed onto is how the lines in design seem to be blurring as AI may be favoring generalists. I've been thinking for some time now that designers that expands their understanding beyond the interface, embracing both business priorities and user delight, will be the ones that have a seat at this AI-enhanced (not AI-lead) table. I feel like the next book I read, rather than some cutting edge AI tech book, may be a classic that dives deep into things like JTBD, OST or the business model canvas, as I think generative research is falling behind the evaluative in the spectrum of AI enhanced UX research. It's becoming more about knowing a little about a lot, and a lot about a little... Rose's take on life long learning was also on-point! Keep an eye out for these DScout webinars. It's where it's at!

Today I attended an incredible live webinar on Bringing AI into UX Research and my mind is buzzing with possibilities! 🧠✨ The MASTER Framework shared was a game-changer for thinking about AI-powered workflows: - Mapping: Mapping your workflow and getting stakeholder alignment - Audit: Breaking down every task (like writing invite emails) to identify micro-decisions and repeatable moments - Scan: Deciding what to automate vs. what needs the human touch. Low-stakes, repetitive tasks? Perfect for AI. High-complexity, trust-sensitive work? Keep it human. - Trial: Running small experiments with low-risk tasks. Time to become AI experimenters! - Embed: Transforming those successful experiments into real workflow improvements - Repeat: Creating your launchpad to AI agents What struck me most: “it's not about replacing human insight, but strategically identifying where AI can free us up for the high-stakes, creative problem-solving that only we can do.” The key insight: “Start small, experiment safely, and build confidence through practice.” Huge thanks to Rose B. and the organizers for such a practical, actionable session. This framework is going straight into my toolkit! 🙏 Dscout #UXResearch #AIinResearch #UserResearch #ProductDesign #Innovation
