Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

AI isn't killing design — it's spawning specialized roles like the Embedded AI Design Consultant, the Agentic UX Architect, and the Trust Designer, among others. Rather than replacing designers, the shift moves the craft away from pixel production and toward cognitive psychology, systems thinking, and business orchestration. The premium designers of the next decade will be valued for choreographing how humans and intelligent agents collaborate.
