Summary: AI can already perform many UX tasks, ranging from design and research ideation to analyzing qualitative user data at scale. It’s the perfect assistant that quickly produces the first drafts of any UX method plan or deliverable. It will do more in the future, including possibly complete UI designs. But AI will not eliminate the need to watch human users.
I love this post, it exactly how I think regarding this topic. All this was what I was considered when creating my startup PrepxUs.com. instead of just creating another user research tools with a horrid usability, I focused on simplicity, unification of data, diversity of data, accuracy, transparency, and unbiases, before even considering to adding AI functionality.
So the symbiosis of Human AI interact can flourish.
A great take by one of the masters. But I'm more skeptical that others will see human observation at the center of UX in our AI-driven future. Yes, "user research without users is an impossibility." But many organizations are already quite comfortable making product decisions without user testing. I could easily see AI responses acting as proxy for user feedback in the not-to-distant future, if it's not already.
