UX person. Trained psychologist.
Sometimes it seems like the main use case for #AI is writing about it.
#AI does not „hallucinate“. It does not function properly. Words matter.
So annoying when #psychology in #UX is regarded as a mere “box of tricks” to sell stuff.

This does, of course, not only apply to game design. #UX #design #psychology #games #thesims
Did we already have this year‘s discussion about whether #UX designers should be able to code?

#UX design is not about making people like what you want to sell them.
