"The growth of AI, especially generative AI-related innovations, has introduced a promising way to automate manual activities in every computer-related field, including programming, technical writing, and even UI/UX design. The generative AI core has a predictive, probabilistic nature and high dependence on human-created data inputs, so AI can't ever be trusted to be used beyond human-reviewed automation. But professionals, including product designers, began to overuse AI and ruin their own professional fields."
"Now we have intelligent, AI-powered tools to generate product ideas, do UX research, create prototypes, and turn prototypes into real products in record time - AI has given everyone a new way to build digital products, skipping the traditional, well-structured UX process. This futuristic AI-backed product design and development methodology looks attractive, so it started attracting modern product designers, but this AI-based product creation is actually an AI-overusing trap that could ruin the growth of the user-centric, creative, evolving UX design field."
Generative AI automates many computer-related tasks including programming, technical writing, and UI/UX design, but its probabilistic nature and dependence on human-created data make it unsuitable for unsupervised use. Designers increasingly overuse AI tools, enabling rapid idea generation, UX research, prototyping, and productization while bypassing structured UX processes. Excessive reliance on AI threatens user-centric, creative UX growth by replacing necessary human judgment. Properly limited AI can boost productivity across UX phases, aiding ideation, research, and design speed without sacrificing quality when maintained under human-centered control. Designers should understand AI limitations and avoid automating activities AI cannot optimally perform.
