Prompt like a content designer

"Words don't come easy," especially when they aren't your usual design element. But with the right frameworks and prompting techniques, they can become more manageable.

Join Annelie for an engaging exploration of practical frameworks and prompting strategies that will help you craft compelling content that resonates with your users—both with and without the assistance of AI.

In this interactive session, you will:

- Learn essential techniques for crafting clear and impactful messaging in user interfaces.

- See concrete examples that illustrate these techniques in action.

- Gain practical confidence to care for the words in the user experience, regardless of your role in the development process.

This is an opportunity to enhance your content creation skills and build a pragmatic toolbox that elevates your design practice.

Generative AI for Engaging User Storyboards

Storyboards are the best way to illustrate the user journey and highlight pain points. Creating detailed and well-crafted storyboards, however, can be time-consuming and challenging when inspiration doesn't come quickly. AI image generators offer a solution by creating unique and engaging visuals for storyboards based on short, simple text prompts.
Join me in this talk to discover how Generative AI tool, Adobe Firefly, can create storyboards that effectively tell a story, spark emotions, and communicate a clear message to your team and stakeholders. Through different case studies, you will discover how to create dynamic characters, set scenes, and visualize concepts that resonate with your team and stakeholders.

Tatiana will also hold a workshop:

In this workshop, we'll get more hands on where you'll create your own AI visuals for your storyboards. You'll learn how to write effective text prompts in Adobe Firefly, develop engaging characters and scenarios using AI, and work with reference images to maintain consistent visuals across your storyboards scenes.

The Future of UX: AI-Enhanced Workflows and Beyond

AI is no longer a futuristic concept it’s here, reshaping how designers work, create, and innovate. But how do we ensure AI enhances, rather than replaces, the human touch in UX?

- AI’s role in UX workflows—from research to prototyping and beyond
- The shift from human-led to AI-empowered design
- How to integrate AI tools effectively without losing creativity
- The impact of AI on productivity, decision-making, and personalization
