Yesterday was my last day at CRED. A place I started my career and called home for 6 years. When I got the opportunity to join the design team, I came in with a simple intention: to learn as much as I could, hone my craft, create meaningful impact, and grow as a Designer. 
It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made, because that’s exactly what this journey gave me. Thank you @harish_io, and the entire team for taking a chance on me back then. I’ll always be grateful for the trust and support. Looking back, it feels surreal to have had the opportunity to design so many products and collaborate with the incredible people I did along the way. It’s been a privilege to learn from them and grow alongside them. And with that, it’s time to move forward, onwards and upwards ✨

Earlier this year I got to expand Notion’s AI Assistant with four new personality states, all crafted in @rive_app. The original Assistant was created by the amazing team at Buck, and being part of that collaboration set the foundation for everything that followed.

the old way of scaling teams is dead: we used to hire specialists – designers, engineers, PMs – each in their lane, scaling by adding more people. but when Cursor can take you from idea to code in minutes, execution isn't the bottleneck anymore. taste and judgment are. what matters now: people who can see the full stack, move between layers, but specialize deeply in something AI can't replicate yet. T-shaped but way wider – conversant across domains, expert in one thing. AI doesn't just make you faster. it ties teams together differently. no more waterfall – designer codes the prototype, engineer extends it, both work in the same medium. the gap between disciplines disappears. this raises individual ceilings. i'm a designer who built ryOS entirely in Cursor – couldn't have done that before. but i'm not replacing engineers, i'm just removing execution barriers while keeping my design taste and systems thinking. you're not hiring for roles anymore. you're hiring for breadth + depth, taste, systems thinking, learning velocity. 5 people who can work across code/design/product beat 20 specialists coordinating handoffs. the new bottlenecks are deeply human: taste, vision, judgment, context. AI explores options, but can't tell you which is right. that's where specialization matters now – in judgment, not execution. small teams, fluid boundaries, everyone working in the same tools. roles still matter but as overlapping concerns with different depths, not separate silos. tools handle execution, you handle vision. this is what we're building at Cursor – closing the gap between idea and reality. so your taste becomes the main thing, and teams have more freedom to explore crazy ideas.

One way I think about this is: You get a certain amount of "credits" to spend to create visual hierarchy. Size, color, space, weight, typeface, etc. The goal is to create a clear design while spending as few credits as possible. Some designs over-spend and things feel messy. Some designs under-spend and there's not enough hierarchy to latch onto. A good practice is to start by spending a single credit, see how it feels, and only spend more if it's not clear yet. For example, if you are trying to create visual hierarchy between two pieces of text, try changing only the weight instead of changing both the weight and size at the same time.
Lee Robinson@leerob

The most practical design advice I've heard is to constrain yourself. Pick one or two font sizes. Use only a few grays. Add color sparingly. Most of my old designs with three font weights, six grays, and four different text sizes all looked instantly better when stripped back.

Designing by Committee – “No single person suggests making a logo that resembles an anus, but when everyone's feedback gets incorporated, that's what often emerges. Risk aversion in corporate environments naturally pushes designs toward familiar, "safe" territory, which apparently means anatomical openings.” velvetshark.com/ai-company-log…

very strong agree here. have to admit I was a bit skeptical before walking into (or more accurately, my skepticism brewed as I stood in line for, and then walked into) the pop-up yesterday. how much brand equity can you really get out of free coffee, a hat, and a free copy of a book? turns out quite a bit. the lady working at the cash register told me this was their “most successful pop-up ever,” that she’d spoken to engineers from both OpenAI and Gemini who’d come by to visit, and I saw two teenage boys saunter in, then leave crestfallen that the popup had run out of copies of “Machines of Loving Grace” for the day. she told them to come back tomorrow. am still trying to reconcile the feeling of being there (a little cattle-like tbh) vs the feeling of posting about being there (more ruminative, WANTING to generate meaning and discourse about the experience). takeaway for me is that successful tech pop-ups should give totems and clues about how to retroactively contribute to the discourse (in Anthropic’s case, a cap and a book).

Smart move by Anthropic to carve out a brand identity as “the thinking man’s AI lab” Positioning as a defender of human intellect is a unique differentiator and taps into the anti-slop zeitgeist Unclear impact on sales, but it’s great for recruiting smart principled people, which is upstream of all else
