👋 Hello UXers!

We’re kicking off the 2026 season 🐎 with a discussion about the practical side of AI in our design practice.

We are joined by members of the Ghost6 group - Belle Chance (Head of Experience) and team from Ghost Dynamics, and Michael Cawte (Principal Engineer) from SECTION6, for a practical “show and tell” of their trans-Tasman team's workflow (NZ & Aus).

The Ghost6 team will share how they’ve integrated AI tools into their research, UX, UI, and front-end build processes, shown through real-world project examples.

What’s we’ll explore:

Practical Show & Tell: A look at how processes are changing with new tools.
The "Augmented" Approach: Using AI to fill execution gaps without letting it direct the strategy or ideation.
Know when to say ‘No’: Areas where they have deliberately chosen not to use AI and why that works for them.
Raising the Bar: How to use AI to enrich the outputs; go further and deeper within the same time constraints. Why striving for "additional delight" beyond MVP is essential in a world where “The last best experience that anyone has anywhere, becomes the minimum expectation for the experience they want everywhere.” (Bridget van Kralingen).
The Investment Needed: As tech enables richer experiences, those that don't simultaneously keep up with cleaning up data foundations are already behind.

Join Belle and her team for a transparent look at what’s working, what could have been better, and how their UX services have evolved.

The Details

Online session: Wednesday, 4 Mar | 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM (Stories, Demos, and Q&A)
Bonus social for Auckland locals: Thursday, 5 Mar | 5:30 PM @ Mr Murdoch's Pizza Bar🍕. This is a gathering that the Ghost Dynamic team do for themselves. If you are around in the CBD / Fort St area, Belle and the design team welcome you for a little chin-wag.

Bring your questions and experience to this discussion!

See you there! 💜
