The gap between idea and production disappears

When you put designers who build with AI in the same room, the conversation stops being theoretical and starts being operational. Live demos replace slide decks, and “wait, can you show that again?” replaces polite applause.

I volunteered to help bring Intercom's first AI Design Meetup in London to life. Speakers included Nathalie K. (Figma), Heldiney Pereira (Monzo), Ioana Teleanu (ex-Miro), and Intercom's Domingo Widen, James Cash and Daria V., punchy talks, live demos, and an evening exploring accelerated prototyping, bridging the code gap and pushing creative limits.

Designers from across London came together to share what's working, what's breaking and where this is all heading.
