This month we look at why most in-house UX teams are organized around work that no longer arrives in the way it used to. Product owners, developers, and marketers are all producing design with AI tools long before anyone thinks to raise a ticket, and telling them to stop has quietly stopped working. We talk about what to fund instead, how to measure a team that is no longer the bottleneck, and where Marcus thinks Paul has gone too far.

Daniel and Isabel are taking September and October off from the podcast. New episodes coming in November! With Daniel's tour of his solo show and Isabel's movie release, they aren't able to be in the same city as each other enough to produce quality episodes right now. We (this is actually Isabel typing, hi!) are so moved by everyone who's been listening, writing to us, and enjoying the show. We are so exciting to dive back in come November when our other projects settle down a bit. Thank you everyone for listening!
