AI x Design Demos #1
This is a Designer specific event, Non-design practitioners are unlikely to be accepted
AI tools are changing how designers work, think, and create, and yet there are very few spaces to actually talk about it irl. AI x Design Demos* is a small, curated evening for designers to get together, share what they've been building, and see what others are doing with AI.
The format is simple: each speaker gets a maximum of 7 minutes to demo something they've built or show how they use AI in their workflows or even give a lightning talks on topics like why Paper.design is better than Figma. Keep it short, sharp, and straight to the point.
Here's the tentative schedule (as per Claude):
Kenneth Dsouza — Intro to the meetup
Gyan Lakhwani — Disposable tools for designers
Veethika Mishra — AI for stress-testing permission models
Shuvam Manna — Speedrun of pre-ChatGPT AI prototypes
Harsh Singhal — Design agent workflow (Figma + Slack)
Mustafa Lokhandwala — Personal software suite built with AI
Atishay - How he uses Claude
Jaljith - Recent Projects
For Student applicants: If you're a student, reach out to via Contact host as there are a few spots reserved for students on a first come, first served basis. A valid student ID card is a must.
P.S. If you don't make it this time, don't worry, the plan is to keep doing more of these.
This is the first edition, hosted by Kenneth Dsouza. He's a product designer with a Master's from NID and 12+ years of experience working at companies like Practo, Gojek, and Jiva.ag. Currently on a sabbatical tinkering with making apps and exploring AI native design tools. You can find his AI projects at: https://kenneth.dsouza.im/ai/
