Hiring a product designer can significantly impact your ROI by enabling the creation of user-centered, innovative designs that meet market demands. This leads to increased sales, heightened customer satisfaction, and enhanced brand loyalty.

@MikeyShulman @sonyatweetybird Just listened to it and enjoyed it. Suno is one of the most fun products to use. Go in with an idea to make one song and get stuck having a blast for a couple of hours.

@Joshua_Ariza It could be said that it's a lost art.

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@Joshua_Ariza Only if I want to spend 10 hours on what I can do in a few minutes with AI.

Hasn't happened yet.

Here comes some shameless self promotion. I've decided to get back to writing about hockey about a week ago. Sub, if you'd like. Let's see how long I last this time.

🚨 Do you understand what's happening at Amazon right now?

Their own AI coding agent Kiro reportedly "decided" the fastest way to fix a config error was to delete the entire production environment. Gone. A 6-hour outage. 6.3 million orders lost.

Amazon's SVP called thousands of engineers into a mandatory meeting this week. Not to discuss strategy. To discuss damage control.

Now here's my prediction and I want you to screenshot this:

Amazon won't just ban AI-assisted code. They'll make every engineer personally liable for AI-generated code they approve. Other Big Tech will follow within 6 months.

Think about what that means.

The same companies that fired thousands of engineers to "restructure around AI" are about to tell the remaining ones.. you're now legally responsible for code you didn't write, can't fully understand, and were told to ship faster.

Atlassian fired 1,600 people this morning to go all-in on AI. Replit is hiring kids who vibe code. And Amazon, the company that BUILT one of these AI coding agents just watched it nuke production.

The vibe coding era isn't ending. But the "move fast and let AI break things" era is about to hit a wall. And that wall is called liability.

Companies wanted AI to replace engineers. Now they need engineers to babysit AI. And they already fired the babysitters.

@damnventures @round This confirms it. Designers are boring people.

@abemurray Would be amazing but they're not looking for anyone with my skill set.

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@paulg @JarekSyg One thing I find interesting is that when you write very well, like me, many people now assume it was written by AI just because they are unable to write well without it.

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@aakashgupta These days most people are unable to get off their phones even when they're with people IRL.

I basically never touch my phone when I'm with people. It's a sign of respect.

I'll have plenty of time to check it when I'm alone.

This image from Pixar’s ‘GATTO’ is not a concept art but instead the final visual of the film.

A Pixar Set Designer reveals that the studio implemented a whole new production system. Sets were modeled in 3D and the details were hand-drawn on top.

@4Jackle4 @DannPetty How's Claude Design and Claude Code with complex enterprise apps where you need a lot of niche domain knowledge?

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@Joshua_Ariza Which part was the devasting one? :)

@amitcoder1 @BroCodez What happened to his X?

@levelsio I didn't know that no one in Europe has HVAC, and only 20% have AC.

Summer temperatures are much hotter now. I remember renting an apartment in Seville in 2017, and even then it was absolutely insane. And I love warmth and tolerate heat well.

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@ssm11b @karpathy Exactly. I'm actually surprised by many people around me not using AI nearly to its potential precisely because they can't think of the right questions to ask.

Fortunately, asking lots of good questions was a skill I've had from childhood. Adults were constantly annoyed.

@HiteshCeon @ESYdotcom @TechEmails It's absolutely true that BYD is getting subsidized by the Chinese government but Tesla was also subsidized by the US government via tax incentives for buyers.

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@abelprads @ESYdotcom @TechEmails It's true about BYD and they're getting subsidized by the Chinese government. However, Tesla was also subsidized by the US government via tax incentives for buyers.

[Marat Ryndin @OutOfElement_i]

@nusionx @ESYdotcom @TechEmails The only reason BYD isn't on the US market is because they're being kept out of it by the US government.
