summary
Walks through concrete interaction patterns and product examples so designers can judge usefulness: demos of Perplexity shows citations and thinking and Slack/Productboard/Notion integrations that auto-summarize and keep sources; Shopify and multimodal examples that convert tables or images into shareable artifacts; MidJourney and Claude playgrounds that expose prompts and tokens. Argues AI can restore user agency but also hallucinates, behaves inconsistently, and sometimes invents prompts, so expect promise plus practical pitfalls.
