Hello folks from Relume, a little not-so-innocent question. Do you think Relume can completely replace UX designers if it's put into the hands of a product owner?
I'll answer as a designer that worked with multiple Product Owners.
It can replace a lot of pixel pushing for sure.
However, similar to how AI can't replace developers (yet hopefully :D), you can't really replace UX Designers by using a design library (even the one as good as Relume).
It’ll replace the divergent ux/ia explorations. Which is great, because those explorations are meant to facilitate business critical discussions. Therein freeing up UX Designers in partnership with Product Owners to think through what the next right step could be. So, in short, it’ll replace the human pace of divergent explorations.
Hey ! Great question.
Our goal is to not replace UX designers but to empower them to work more efficiently and put more time into smaller details which makes the design better from an overall perspective.
Consider AI as your assistant! This is not your typical low-level assistant. This assistant is highly qualified. They possess the design skills of a principal designer or creative director, along with the domain knowledge of an industry expert.
