Everything is Fine with Jack Marple

Creatives rely on essential tools that, when effective, seamlessly integrate into their workflow, allowing them to achieve a state of creative flow where expression feels natural. These tools not only shape our problem-solving approaches but also our final outputs. The introduction of new tools spurs a debate on their value and the benefits they must provide in terms of quality, breadth, or efficiency to justify the challenges of adoption. Historically, new technologies have led to paradigm shifts, introducing new tools and processes that demand adaptation, despite our natural resistance to change. 

We are currently at such a crossroads with AI, which offers new methodologies that could fundamentally alter our approaches and solutions. Embracing these advancements is crucial, as history shows us with the transition from hand drafting to CAD. In collaboration with Jack Marple, we aim to explore how AI will transform tools in industrial design and discuss strategies to stay updated and equipped to build the future.
