Was watching all the clips yesterday for ChatGPT 4o and had a quick go tonight at recreating the speech effect in Figma. Is pretty crude because TV started calling for me. If anyone wants a go on the Figma file is here: figma.com/community/file/137…

Some more experiments with AI image generation dribbble.com/shots/25739020-… dribbble.com/shots/25738983-…

Its Friday night so you know what that means.. a quick mockup of the interaction on text inputs for improving AI prompts: figma.com/community/file/147…

"Ways I am playing with AI as a Product Designer" - not sure if maybe this is a bit of a weird title but here is a post on some stuff I'm doing with AI that is fun to try: open.substack.com/pub/george…

Channeling Transformers for the event cards for my next workshop on Figma's Auto Layout. Will be interesting learning some more best practice myself beforehand. I do spend a lot of time removing auto layouts though, so I'm halfway there I think 🤔

Creating a gradient background animation for a header from today's Figma workshop. I'm still very much a noob at making YouTube videos, my main focus really is just not to cough, but hopefully is enough to give it a go: youtu.be/z4arV-sxpAE?si=UTnu…

I'm working on putting together a short Figma course and would love to hear more from people on the type of content and format that might suit, if you have time for a quick survey is here: maven.com/forms/be5c49 many thanks!

Work-in-progress title screen for a javascript game I am messing about with. The title screen is now quite a bit more exciting than the actual game. This is in keeping with the games I used to play as a kid though - a lot of over-promising on the packaging and title screens!

Made a small game where I get hit in the head with envelopes! Try it for yourself here: georgex1999.github.io/email-… my personal best is a score of 810

Excited for tomorrow's meetup!

I'm putting together a list of useful AI tools and resources for UX/Product designers. This could include articles, podcasts, videos, courses and so on! If anyone here has any they have found particularly useful, I would love to hear them!

This is what the 'The Hobbit' would look like if it was set in space

Back in 2007 my family held a 'Cider fest' where we drank my dad's home brew cider. I used the AI prompt: 'Design a label for a cider called Cranbrook with a budgie on the label' Other than the text mangling, this is pretty nice! 😮

Ran out of credits in Adobe firefly trying to generate the right type of tabby cat taking over the world. My son's 'teenage mouse stepping onto a bus in town' is also fun. I think the key is adding 'in the style of a 1950s poster' to everything, as for the last image of the ship

I'll be facilitating this on Saturday - should be a great opportunity to meet and learn from other designers and do a bit of prototyping together!
