The Shape of AI | UX Patterns for Artificial Intelligence Design
shapeof.aithere is a lack of visionary product thinking in AI. tons of innovation in models - but most products today automate existing flows (hence so many "cursor for..." companies) with few truly novel end products.
yes, apps can be built faster - but they're the same apps (perhaps slightly worse) as before AI. meanwhile consumer AI products are stuck in... See more
Conversational Interfaces: the Good, the Ugly & the Billion-Dollar Opportunity

Nailing the UX for AI Agents is one of the more fun design questions and challenges that we’ve ever had in software.
As AI moves from just being about Assistants you talk with, to full Agents that execute complete tasks for you, the nuances of the AI Agent design are going to

Who We Are
Humane is a team of proven industry experts who have invented, built, and shipped category-defining hardware and software products to billions of people across the globe. We're known for building the audacious, ambitious, and the impossible, and we're doing it again. Our vision for the next shift between humans and computing requires innovation across multiple emerging technologies in hardware and software, from devices to cloud services.
About The Role
We're seeking a Lead Designer to join our Intelligent Systems Design team. If you are a Digital Product Designer ready to move beyond traditional interface paradigms, this role offers the opportunity to help shape foundational aspects of our AI-powered experiences, with a particular focus on reimagining how computers remember, understand, and surface information. You'll alternate between deep exploratory work and shipping features that will fundamentally change how people interact with technology.
Working across Ai Pin, Cosmos, and future products, you'll tackle challenges like designing AI-powered memory systems and creating interfaces that understand and respond to people's needs. Success in this role requires both creative vision and the technical ability to build and validate ideas using real AI technology. You'll have the space to explore challenging problems while maintaining a clear focus on shipping products that work.
Our goal is to create technology that feels obvious once you experience it. We're looking for designers who can envision a world where computing enhances our human capabilities rather than demanding our attention. We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds who are excited to help reshape how humans and computers work together.
What You Might Do
Design and build functional prototypes of AI-powered interfaces that adapt to human behavior
Develop new approaches for how computers capture and surface information naturally
Create new paradigms for information architecture in AI-first systems
Validate concepts through hands-on prototyping with modern tools and AI technologies
Collaborate with designers and engineers to bring experimental ideas to production
Define clear interaction patterns for AI system behavior and feedback loops
Focus deeply on key areas like memory systems and generative interfaces
Essential Qualifications
5+ years of digital product design experience, with a proven track record of shipping products
Strong prototyping abilities using tools like SwiftUI, Python, Javascript or Origami
Experience building with AI technologies (particularly LLMs) in products or substantial side projects
Portfolio demonstrating novel approaches to complex interaction problems
Ability to balance exploratory design work with practical implementation constraints
Strong systems thinking skills and ability to design for emergent behaviors
Enthusiasm for building intuitive, empathetic technology
Curiosity for learning new technologies and finding unexpected solutions to complex problems
Preferred Skills
A passion for tinkering and experimentation
Background in information architecture or knowledge management systems
Understanding of machine learning concepts and their practical applications in UIs
Experience designing products that learn from people’s behavior
Interest in cognitive science and how humans process/organize information
