Design in the Age of AI: How to build things that look good and actually work
You have an idea; an app, a side project, a hackathon concept - but turning it into something that actually looks polished can feel difficult, expensive, or reserved for “real designers.”
That’s changing fast.
AI tools have dramatically reduced the gap between an idea and a product that feels real. You no longer need years of design experience to prototype interfaces, explore concepts, or create polished user experiences. What matters now is knowing how to think through problems, use the right tools, and direct AI intentionally.
In this practical session, Uche will walk through how designers and non-designers alike can use AI to go from rough ideas to thoughtful, functional product experiences.
Using real examples and live workflows, he’ll demonstrate how AI can support the design process, from inspiration and ideation to interfaces and prototypes.
We’ll cover:
Getting design inspiration without starting from scratch
AI design toolkit: what to use and when
Live demo: from brief to designed screen in real time
How to make your hackathon project look like it was built by a team
And a Q&A session
Whether you’re technical, non-technical, creative, or simply curious, this session is for anyone who wants to turn ideas into products that feel real.
