The obvious path for designers in the AI age is to move closer to code.
But the more valuable path may be upstream: closer to the customer, the business, and the problem.

Acquiring knowledge is easy, the hard part is knowing what to apply and when.
That’s why all true learning is “on the job.”
Life is lived in the arena.
