Curious how designers, researchers, and PMs are actually using AI in their daily work?
Join the IxDF Dulles community for a relaxed virtual meetup where we’ll swap real experiences, unexpected discoveries, and a few “AI definitely misunderstood the assignment” moments.
This isn’t a presentation. It’s a conversation with peers across the product design lifecycle who are experimenting with AI and figuring out what’s actually useful.
⚡ Our last meetups sparked great conversations and new connections — grab your spot and join us!
💡 What you’ll walk away with:
Real examples of how people are using AI in UX, research, and product work
New workflow ideas you can try immediately
Fresh perspectives on where AI helps (and where it doesn’t)
Connections with local professionals navigating the same changes
🤝 Perfect for:
UX designers, UX researchers, product managers, anyone working in digital product teams, anyone transitioning into UX or anyone interested in this topic!
Whether you’re experimenting with AI daily or just starting to explore it, you’ll fit right in.
🎤 What we’ll do:
Quick introductions and a short hello from me as the new IxDF Dulles Local Leader
Community discussion: “AI in my workflow”
Share wins, fails, surprising uses, and lessons learned
Open conversation about where AI may impact our work next
No slides. No experts. Just smart people learning together.
