AI Design for Good: Leading with Vision and Humanity in the Age of Intelligent Machines

We stand at a turning point where AI is reshaping not only our tools, but the very fabric of human creativity, culture, and work. As design leaders, we have a choice: will we let technology dictate the future, or will we shape it with intention, values, and vision?

In this session, Alice Au Quan - design executive, futurist, and creator of AI Design for Good — draws from decades of experience leading teams at Google, Walmart, Ripple, and GoFundMe to explore what it means to design responsibly in the age of intelligent machines. She’ll share frameworks for balancing innovation with ethics, showcase examples where AI has uplifted humanity (and where it has gone wrong), and challenge us to imagine the jobs of the future that lean into our most human strengths: empathy, creativity, and meaning-making.

Ovetta Sampson could be co-presenter (confirming her schedule and availability) She is founding partner of AIDesignforGood.com
