AI is transforming the way we build products, but what does that actually mean for designers, creators, and builders?

In this conversation, I sit down with Maxim Bondar, Head of Global Business & Marketing for Logitech MX, to explore how AI is changing product design, how Logitech used AI while developing the MX Master 4, why human taste still matters, and whether AI is replacing creativity or simply amplifying it.

We've covered how Logitech uses AI to build better products, why human judgment still matters, where AI actually saves time, and what designers and creators should expect from the next wave of AI.
