Natter Community's one-day conference on design, product and AI, at Autotrader, 3 Hawkshaw Street, on Thursday 12 November, 8:30 to 18:30. Breakfast and lunch are included. The theme is transparency in digital products. Speakers so far: Gareth Ford Williams (Double FW and CAN) on accessibility, Llara Geddes (AND Digital), Emily Webber (Tacit), Rachel Morgan-Trimmer (Firebird), design writer Rob Alderson and Carrie Tudsbury, service design lead at Autotrader. Registration is 8:30, talks start at 9:30, and the full agenda is still being filled in. General admission is 50 pounds. Why go: a full day with people who ship digital products, and a lot of it is about how AI is changing design work. Best for designers, researchers and product people; engineers and founders will get less out of it.
