Is Everyone a Researcher? The (R)evolution of the Researcher’s Role in Customer-Centric CompaniesIn the past, UX Researchers were the gatekeepers of customer insights—the exclusive bridge to understanding users. Today? In many companies everyone has direct access to customers. PMs conduct interviews, CSMs gather feedback, and designers run their own tests. Does this mean researchers are becoming o...

You’ll learn how...
[PL] MarekTrawiński | Czy twój rozmówca musi być człowiekiem? | WaysConf 2025 13.02.2026 28:10
Czy twój rozmówca musi być człowiekiem? Syntetyczne persony w nowej erze badań i AI.Wraz z dynamicznym rozwojem sztucznej inteligencji, przed badaczami UX stają nowe, prowokujące pytania. Czy tworząc produkty dla ludzi, wciąż musimy badać wyłącznie ludzi? Czy modele językowe, symulujące ludzkie zachowania i odpowiedzi, stają się (lub mogą stać się) naszym nowym narzędziem badawczym? Czy rozmowa z...

How come "Solution looking for a problem" is no longer a joke in Product Management due to AIThis talk explores how the AI hype is pushing companies to abandon solid product practices, rushing to ship AI features without clear problems to solve.

[ENG] Hanna Norlin | Crafting Utopia: The Stories and Designs That Shape Our World | WaysConf 2025 08.02.2026 29:54
In a world where dystopian narratives dominate, we risk overlooking a fundamental truth: utopia is not only possible—it is the most likely outcome.

From science fiction to tec...
[ENG] Francesco Cutolo | How We Safely Landed Our Design System | WaysConf 2025 08.02.2026 39:55

[PL] Natalia Sidor | Empatia - o (nie!) zapomnianej umiejętności projektantów | WaysConf 2025 07.02.2026 21:11
Empatia to jedno z najczęściej powtarzanych słów w świecie UX, ale czy naprawdę tak często ją wykorzystujemy? Podczas mojej prezentacji pokażę, jak przejść od pustego hasła do realnego narzędzia, które ma wpływ na sukces produktu. Dowiesz się, dlaczego przypadek jednej z polskich uczelni pokazał, że empatia i spójność nie zawsze idą w parze, jak dobre chęci pewnego NGO – bez faktycznego zrozumieni...
[PL] Anna Jozanis | Doświadczenie na minusie. Jak skutecznie redukować dług UX | WaysConf 2025 07.02.2026 29:33
Dług UX to podstępny wróg. A jego sprzymierzeńcem jest pogoń za jak najszybszym wprowadzaniem nowych rozwiązań w Twoim produkcie, która prowadzi do pomijania drobnych niedoskonałości, a ich poprawę często przesuwa się na „wieczne potem”. Zaczyna się od drobnych błędów, które początkowo nieznacznie wpływają na doświadczenie użytkownika. Nadal więc priorytetem są nowe funkcje, dające większą wartość...
[ENG] Benjamin Shishko | What’s in your head - you can build. AI prototyping for UXers | WaysConf 2025 07.02.2026 42:33
Historically, building AI features has been an extremely expensive task. It required a team of engineers, data scientists, researchers and an enormous dataset. Now, that AI is on hype and we already have tools to experiment with and fine tune own models, UX designers still miss know-how on how to jump in and contribute to ai-related product work streams... and most importantly how to prototype des...
[ENG] Vitaly Friedman | Inclusive UX: From Gen-Z to Older Adults | WaysConf 2025 06.02.2026 55:11
When designing for a specific user group, we often tend to generalize, following assumptions, biases and stereotypes. So how do we design effectively to invite a use group and broaden our user base? How do we design for children and teenagers? How do we adjust our content and design for Gen-Z? What should we keep in mind for older adults? And what about people who have to make critical decisions u...

[ENG] Shai Passal | Beyond the Hype: Our Journey to Understand, Measure, and Build for Trust in AI | WaysConf 2025 05.02.2026 22:47
