THE DEATH OF DESIGN

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

A UX designer pushes back against narratives declaring design's death in the age of AI, arguing the discipline is evolving, not disappearing. Chat interfaces are often framed as the weakest affordance, and AI tools like Claude are powerful assistants rather than replacements for skilled, critical design thinking. As vibe-coding hype fades and the gap between prototype and product becomes clearer, design's role will remain essential — redefined, but no less valuable.
