This compilation offers curated resources for designers, focusing on the evolving landscape of online interactions and the impact of AI. A central theme is the need to design "exits" from the online world, a responsibility that grows as AI blurs the lines further. The discussion delves into the purpose of software, challenging idealized notions of design in the face of AI's rise.
