AI, Product and Design Podcast
The AI, Design, & Product Podcast is your front-row seat to how AI is reshaping the way we build products. Each episode dives into the real shifts happening across UX, product, and startups — from why the prompt box is already a broken interface, to how AI-native workflows are replacing traditional design toolchains, to what the next generation of hybrid designer/PM/engineer roles actually looks like. Mark sits down with sharp voices like Dan Saffer, Barry O'Reilly (Nobody Studios), Mindaugas Petrutis (Lovable), and Akshay Kore to cut through the hype and surface the playbooks, mindsets, and strategic shifts product people need to thrive in an AI-powered world. If you're a designer, researcher, PM, or founder trying to figure out what to build, what to unlearn, and where the real opportunities are over the next 3–5 years — this is the conversation you'll want in your feed.

#2 UX Institute Founder Mark Swaine Speaks With Interplay's Founder Michael Fitzgerald On Design/Dev Workflow, Design Systems And Prototyping
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
UXI speak to Michael Fitzgerald, co-founder of Interplay. Mark and Michael discuss the historic workflow pain that both designers and developers have faced working together building product, the inefficiencies and poor communication. The conversation opens up the realities of the lack of understanding / misinterpretation by developers as to how product screens should function and behave. And where Interplay sits to solve this workflow by having both devs and designers work from an org wide code generated design system, leaning ever so closer to the full stack design workflow delivery. Coded VS static prototyping is also discussed along with current tooling trends. Enjoy!
