Many designers use AI to "go faster." But the ones really thriving with AI aren’t just moving quickly—they’re unlocking entirely new possibilities in their work.

I sat down w @0xCharlota to learn about how she uses AI to create some of the most talked about brands on the new internet.

We talk about:
- How AI is transforming the design process
- The importance of taste in branding
- Shifting roles of designers with advancing technology
