DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday\, November 25\, 2026\, Vancouver AI is back under 
 the dome at the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre. This month we hand the stage 
 to a designer who has spent fifteen years deciding where people belong in 
 a system\, and where the machines do.\n\nWhere humans go\, where AI goes\n
 Most AI conversations start with the model. This one starts with judgement
 .\nZoë Zaslow has spent fifteen years in product design\, including desig
 n problems that were literally life and death. AI and natural language pro
 cessing showed up in some of that work. They helped. They were never enoug
 h on their own.\n"The thing you need is judgement. Human judgement."\nThat
 's Zoë's whole argument\, and it's harder to practise than it sounds. AI 
 doesn't solve the problem. It enables solutions. The real work is figuring
  out where human judgement has to sit\, so you know where to put people an
 d where to put AI.\n\nZoë Zaslow. Photo: Michelle Diamond.\nThe talk\, in
  two parts\nPart one\, 25 minutes. Fifteen years of design practice boiled
  down to four takeaways. Design process and systems thinking for people wh
 o build products but were never taught design thinking. Real cases\, plain
  language\, no jargon test at the door.\nPart two\, 20 minutes. One projec
 t\, start to finish. Where the people went\, where the machines went\, and
  why.\nNobody gets scolded for shipping fast. Zoë's approach is gentle an
 d Socratic: lead the room to the water and let it drink.\nBring these ques
 tions\n\nCheck before you go: https://luma.com/nov-vanai
