Tony Alicea argues the output of research and design is shifting from documents written for human colleagues to curated context that guides AI — a UX.md file, modelled on Google’s already-shipped DESIGN.md. Eight days earlier, Maria Rosala made the opposite case: a team that outsources research to AI gets a report, but it does not get the learning.
The hosts take both seriously, including the counterargument neither essay quite answers — human-readable research reports were widely ignored long before AI touched them — and end on the question underneath the disagreement: who inside an organisation actually owns curating that context.
