How AI changes UX research: speed, quality & team culture | Deniz Kartepe | #79

<p>Deniz Kartepe, a product researcher at Miro, reflects on the most prominent changes AI is bringing to product development and UX research. He explores how agentic AI transforms the speed and quality of research, reshapes organizational culture and collaboration within teams, and redefines the skills the next generation of researchers will need. </p><p>Deniz also advocates a distinctive view of the product lifecycle: bottlenecks never disappear, they simply shift from building to discovery and alignment, which gives researchers greater influence over what gets built in the first place.</p><p><br></p><p>👉 <em>If you have any tips on fantastic speakers from across the globe, feedback, or any questions, we’d love to hear from you.
