Shlok Nikhil Daivik In 2027, knowing how to design a screen won't be enough. AI will make execution faster and more accessible. But understanding what to build, why to build it, and whether it should be built at all will remain a designer's biggest strength. I believe designers who combine user empathy, business understanding, critical thinking, and strong decision-making will stand out. The real shift is from being a design executor to becoming a problem solver and strategic thinker. AI can generate 100 solutions in seconds. A great designer knows which one is worth pursuing — and why.
