Why AIX exists

The intersection of AI and Design is changing faster than it can keep up.

Rapid tech shift

AI is changing how design work is done. Tools, workflows, and expectations are evolving faster than teams can actually adapt.

Design is being redefined

Design is no longer just UI, Figma, and the double-diamond. It now includes systems, agents, prompts, and AI-assisted design in the browser tools.

Skills gap is widening

The way designers work is shifting faster than how they’re trained. Many teams are still applying old methods to new problems.

No shared language or rule-book

There’s no clear playbook for designing with AI. Everyone is experimenting in isolation.

What to expect

AiX Conference 2027 will focus on three-main areas of thinking, over 1 track.

AI in Practice

Real AI workflows, AI tools, and AI constraints in design.

Design Systems

Moving from static Figma designs to AI-driven design systems.

The Future Designer

Roles, skills, and identity for the next wave of designers.
