Vibe, Trust & Creative Intelligence

3 people enrolled last week.
AI features rarely fail because they don't work. They fail because people don't trust them.
If you've been designing for a while, you have a process that works. AI changes the material that process was built for. You're no longer designing screens for a user — you're designing a relationship between a human actor and a new kind of collaborator, one that improvises. Your instincts still hold. Your process needs new tools.
This course is where you build them.
Six weeks. One project. A trust lens on every phase.
Each week pairs a Monday lecture with a Thursday discussion, where you present your work and get feedback from me and your peers. Before we begin, you'll choose one AI product or feature and carry it through a complete design cycle — Discover, Define, Design, Develop, Deploy — building something real as you go.
The principles are technology-agnostic: they hold across conversational, generative, predictive, and embedded AI, and they'll still hold when the tool landscape shifts next quarter.
Feeling-First Design for the AI Age
lead AI-augmented projects end to end—from Discover to Deploy—with a repeatable, explainable method.
You'll leave with a portfolio-ready prototype built this way.
You'll be able to write a feeling brief and design for the actor's mental model.
AI-assisted work feels inevitable to real users instead of generically "resolved."
Run a Trust Audit on any AI feature — evaluating Safety, Efficacy, Accountability, Transparency, and Agency
Start projects room with a human-first framework nobody else has.
Setting purpose, boundaries, and guardrails—so AI stays a co-pilot, not a pilot, no matter which technology is under the hood
Use AI's speed to find simplicity instead of accumulating polished mediocrity.
Every project makes you permanently better, not just temporarily done.
