> The Outcome-Oriented Designer - Because AI systems can shortcut the information-seeking process, the human design of microinteractions will become substantially less important. They’ll either be inexistent (because the AI system makes them unnecessary), or they’ll be dynamically designed through generative UI to fit the user’s exact context and needs.
Interesting ideas, though from companies I've worked with, there is a huge cadre of UX people that know nothing else and would likely fight this tooth and nail.

Any time commercial use art could be automated at the expense of creative labor it has been -- from illuminated manuscripts by the printing press to illustration by photography to typesetting by desktop publishing and now from art direction to AI. Oddly enough, the most cut & paste jobs are management and no one is illustrating how effective AI could be replacing those jobs. It shows off the ingenuity of the creators better when "AI" looks creative. Someone needs to show how it's better at analyzing risks based on measurable outcomes than most C-level executives already. The top 20% of my company makes more than 60% of the wages. The savings are way better and the technology is considerably easier.
