DESCRIPTION:The rapid ascent of Generative AI has disrupted traditional UX 
 workflows\, forcing teams to move beyond "business as usual." At Red Hat\,
  our User Experience Design team is navigating this shift by integrating A
 I directly into our research and design processes to increase velocity by 
 transforming raw feedback into polished design updates faster than ever be
 fore.\n\nIn this session\, we share a transparent look at our journey towa
 rd becoming an AI-first UX team. We will showcase real-world applications 
 of AI-driven tooling\, including:\n\n **- Augmented Research Synthesis:** 
 Using custom scripts and LLMs to extract user needs and pain points from h
 ours of meeting transcripts in seconds.\n**- Prototyping with Code:** Leve
 raging AI-powered code editors like Cursor to deliver interactive prototyp
 es built on our design system\, moving beyond the limitations of static Fi
 gma mocks.\n**- Quality Agents:** Deploying numerous AI agents to ensure d
 esign and content consistency across complex product features.\n\n**The Pe
 rspectives**\n\nWe believe the "human" side of AI adoption is just as impo
 rtant as the tech. Our discussion features three distinct viewpoints:\n**-
  The Strategist:** Tasked with identifying an AI roadmap and managing the 
 cultural and procedural rollout.\n**- The Architect:** An AI-savvy designe
 r who embraced the tech early and built the custom tooling empowering the 
 rest of the team.\n**- The Skeptic:** A self-described "AI newb" who value
 s stability and will share the honest challenges of being pushed into an A
 I-driven workflow.\n\n**We’ll talk about:**\n- How our UX team identifie
 d and built AI-driven tools to solve specific workflow bottlenecks.\n- Cha
 llenges we encountered while shifting a team’s culture and processes tow
 ard an "AI-first" mindset.\n- Lessons we’ve learned from our experience 
 and what we see coming next for the UX craft.
