​Snackable Skills: The Art of Designing Better AI Experiences

​AI, User Behavior, and the Climate Cost of Design Choices

​Every product design choice, from defaults and workflows to feedback loops, influences what users do. And as AI agents become more autonomous, our design decisions increasingly shape what AI does on our behalf.

​These choices don't just affect user experience. They influence computing resources, energy consumption, and potentially even purchasing behavior and market demand.

​What if we could design AI-powered experiences that deliver better outcomes while using fewer resources?

​Join Climate Conscious Leaders for an interactive Snackable Skills workshop where we'll explore how thoughtful product design can reduce AI's environmental impact without sacrificing user value.

​Using familiar AI tools and emerging agentic workflows as examples, we'll apply the E-A-R-T-H framework to explore:

• ​Behavior: How do design choices influence what users and AI agents do?

• ​Impact: Which interactions consume the most resources, and how do we distinguish valuable compute from unnecessary consumption?

• ​Opportunity: How might we rethink AI-powered experiences to deliver better user outcomes with less environmental impact?

​Through practical examples, collaborative exercises, and lively group discussion, you'll explore how to design experiences that balance user needs, business value, and environmental responsibility.
