I use AI to explore, build, and learn. It's an extension of my thinking that accelerates conceptual work, moving from theory to reality without sacrificing quality.
Exploring Ideas
When I'm faced with a sticky problem, I use Figma Make to eliminate the blank canvas.
It allows me to rapidly generate ideas before committing to a single design approach.
It's not about accepting AI's output, but using volume to find design signal.
Building Real Products
My AI practice goes beyond theory & design.
I've built a few applications with working backend functions & data on Lovable.
These projects taught me how data models shape UX & to sequence development steps to build efficiently as the app scales.
Extending my Thinking
While I've used multiple AI tools, my primary strategic go-to is Claude.
It's my thinking partner available at any hour who can challenge assumptions & co-create artifacts.
As a value investor, I created an artifact to understand financial markets using real data.
