Why Design Slop Is Hurting Startups
AI has made it easier than ever to ship product.
It has also made it easier than ever to ship the same product.
As teams move faster, a new kind of design problem is emerging: interfaces that maybe functional but increasingly indistinguishable from one another and lacking character. The same layouts. The same interactions. The same AI-generated patterns.
We’re bringing together founders, product leaders, and designers for a candid conversation on what “design slop” means for startups — and what happens when speed starts coming at the expense of taste, differentiation, and product quality. Joins us for this panel discussion
We’ll talk about how AI is changing the design process, where sameness comes from, when consistency becomes mediocrity, and how startups can move fast without losing the thing that makes their product feel distinctly theirs.
A panel discussion by 88 Design Collective during Tech Week.
