PWC Agentic AI Executive Playbook
I found this awesome playbook about agentic AI on LinkedIN today - definitely worth bookmarking this if you are ever in need of some use cases for Agentic AI. Some notes: - Agentic AI is not the same as AI agents So what’s the difference? - Think of AI agents as the doers - They’re autonomous digital entities that make decisions, adapt to new info and take action to reach a goal Agentic AI is the bigger picture - It’s the full approach to building systems that behave autonomously, plan across multiple steps and drive toward outcomes, often by coordinating multiple agents working together Put simply: ✅ AI agents are the actors ✅ Agentic AI is the system that enables them to collaborate and stay goal-focused

Report: The State of UX in 2025
Just read this report at https://trends.uxdesign.cc/ and it really hit the nail on the head! Here are some of my key takeaways: 1. AI is handy—but sometimes makes us lazy. When tools do the heavy lifting, we lose space to think deeply. Design with what humans learn, not just what machines can output. 2. Just start. Everyone’s either hyping AI or hating it—but we need to experiment gently, figure out what actually works for our teams. 3. Love for your craft will shine through - if you're good at what you do, and you can learn to embrace new tools and methods to make yourself more efficient, you will still stand out against the overabundance of "generic, AI-produced" solutions out there. 4. Embrace imperfection. We need more bold, strange, even messy moments—not bland predictability. Uniqueness and quirks might be a great differentiator in the future, embrace it!
