#5 - Design is Dead, Long live Design - The Seldon Plan
Jul 9, 2025
Andrei and David break down the latest “Design is dead” panic and why it’s really a floor-raising moment for creative work, not a funeral. From Apple’s liquid-glass spectacle to AI-built checkout flows, they dissect what today’s tools get wrong … and where the next leap actually lies. What happens when AI nails every sign-up form but visionless products still flop? When skills welded to tools vanish overnight, yet taste and curation stay priceless? When we mistake cranking out options for the craft of ruthless editing and taste? If you’re shipping software, sketching in Figma, or deciding what must stay stubbornly human in an AI-first world, grab this episode. It’s your roadmap for slashing the noise, owning a point of view, and designing like the floor just rose ten stories.
