Our 2026 Design in AI Report is now live!

This report is the culmination of thousands of people hours and many late nights to create what we believe is the most comprehensive, well-researched report capturing and synthesizing the state of Design + AI today.

While we used AI in many areas, a report like this still required deep thinking, grit, and humans coming together to do what they do best.

The final report spans nearly 20k words covering the survey results of over 900 people paired with dozens of qualitative interviews.

Over the coming months we will also release 7 beautiful case studies showing how top design teams are working on the ground featuring designers at @AnthropicAI, @framer, @linear, @NotionHQ, @Shopify, @SierraPlatform, and @stripe.

This work is a true labor of love to help guide a design community we hold so dear.

Link in the comments and please let us know what you think. Your feedback helps us shape how we will evolve this work over the coming years...

🧵 My tips for getting the best results out of Claude Design! I’m on the verticals team at Anthropic which means I serve 7 different products. Claude Design makes it possible!
1. Set up your design system and your core screens. An hour of setup and refinement here is worth it

Design lead for Claude: The classic design process is dead.

Here's what's replacing it.

Jenny Wen (@jenny_wen) leads design for Claude at @AnthropicAI, was previously director of design at @Figma, and a designer at @Dropbox, @Square, and @Shopify.

In our in-depth conversation, we discuss:
🔸 Why the classic discovery → mock → iterate design process is becoming obsolete
🔸 What a day in the life of a designer at Anthropic looks like, including her AI tool stack
🔸 Whether AI will eventually surpass humans in taste and judgment
🔸 Why Jenny left a director role at Figma to return to IC work
🔸 The three archetypes Jenny is hiring for now

This conversation changed how I think about the future of design.

@karrisaarinen @benblumenrose Couldn't agree with you more. I try to help reframe these opportunities. Slowly but surely more designers will see the potential.

What do you think is holding design founders back the most? Why aren’t there more founders with design backgrounds? /cc @benblumenrose

There’s no shortage of “hustle culture” content out there. But here’s the truth: you never know what tomorrow might bring.

Life can change in a heartbeat. So while you’re pouring every ounce of energy into work, don’t forget to live your life too. Trust me, you'll regret it.

[David Hoang @davidhoang]

This is just a little taste...

Hi twitter. Unfortunately my daughter’s cancer has relapsed, and we find ourselves in another battle. Many of you don’t know me personally, but I’m sharing only if you’re comfortable. Love you all.

One truth in running a business is you’ll never have it fully figured out.

The market changes. You adjust.

The market changes again after your adjustment gets traction.

You adjust again.

And again. And again.

Forever.

So much has changed for developers over the last two decades—except how we host apps.

Render's on a mission to give every developer superpowers, empowering teams to launch apps without managing their own infra.

We're thrilled to partner with @BessemerVP on this journey. 🚀

“Every conversation is an interview.” @FoundBy_ visiting my final @CACollegeofArts class this Spring!

[Dantley Davis @dantley]

All design schools should have a minor in business. That would do so much for the design profession. Without understanding how business works, designers end up being a pair of hands and then focus on whether to code or how we name layers.

So get ready to see how changes in branding strategies, e-commerce technologies, and inclusion standards disrupt the design world in 2023. Check out the full article on Shaping Design to get a more in-depth analysis of the trends headed our way. >> https://t.co/tZ71IgJtzK (12/12)
