A four-week course teaching experienced UX and product designers to design AI-powered products and features — covering AI design patterns, content craft, trust frameworks, and agentic systems.

Syllabus

  • Week 1: The Ai Design Paradigm Shift — Understand how AI changes design thinking — from controlling interfaces to orchestrating agents. Learn the difference between deterministic and probabilistic systems, the Passive → Active → Collaborative → Agentic mode spectrum, and the new research methods AI demands.
  • Week 2: Ai Design Patterns, Content & Prompts — Build a working library of AI patterns — from invocation to output — including the six core agentic patterns. Learn the craft of designing what AI says and how it's instructed, and treat system prompts as a design artifact alongside content designers and applied AI partners.
  • Week 3: Trustworthiness, Evaluation & Onboarding — Earn and maintain user trust through the five pillars of AI trustworthiness, plan evaluation strategies for probabilistic systems, and design onboarding that builds user confidence over time. Navigate accessibility considerations and EU AI Act requirements relevant to UX design.
  • Week 4: Human Control, Agentic Systems & Capstone — Design effective human oversight for autonomous AI agents and map products onto the full autonomy spectrum, from Basic Assistant to Agentic Ecosystem. Apply Anthropic's composable agent patterns, design delegation interfaces, and present your capstone project.
