I prefer weird, marketable designs rather than doing generic design faster.

Like instead of a generic progress bar to your next payment, it should look like an hourglass that changes from sand to blood when your payment is overdue. For some reason, the PMs didn't like this, though. Nor did they like the idea of sending threatening Suno-generated music on WhatsApp instead of push notifications.

But the more intelligent AIs are quite good at this. I've been doing moodboards, like taking snippets from comic books and asking AI to design it to that style, with thick bordered buttons and full screen notifications that "BAM!" at you. Haven't tried with o1 but it seems perfect for it.
