As the interface dissolves into fluid agents, we grapple with who controls the look and feel when Patrick Neeman warns against rebuilding fragmentation and Luke Wroblewski shifts the design challenge from clarity to orchestration.

We explore whether we can claim to design for everyone when we haven’t yet mapped the career paths or ethical lines for the practitioners themselves.
