Design process reflection:
Yesterday I had one of those design moments where I changed property A on route to changing property B but really liked the happy accident of not having yet changed property B. Such serendipitous moments are often part of the design process.
But this feels qualitatively different from generative AI options within Adobe apps offering the ability to spew out variations.
The first feels like a moment of discovery, the second intrinsically more superficial
