Frameworks like Design Thinking and the Double Diamond can help structure creativity but often lead to superficial adherence to processes without capturing true design meaning. Templates promote compliance over creativity, favoring pre-defined formats instead of exploring innovative ideas. AI contributes to this issue by enabling rapid production of content and layouts, but often neglects the importance of quality and thoughtful design, exemplified by failures like the Tea app. Overall, these trends indicate a shift from meaningful design to mere output production.
Frameworks like Design Thinking and the Double Diamond give non-creatives a way to manage design without understanding what makes it meaningful, reducing process to mere theater.
Templates lead to starting with pre-approved patterns, shifting the focus from creativity to compliance, resulting in production rather than true design.
AI generates layouts and text quickly, but it sacrifices craft in the process, as seen in the failed Tea app, which suffered due to lack of meaningful engineering.
