Ioana and Henry discuss working amidst ambiguity and with products that are constantly shape-shifting.
This episode was recorded in partnership with Wix Studio.
In this episode:
• Let’s talk about your time at Perplexity. How does it feel to create something that didn’t exist before? How did you make design decisions, and what did your work there look like?
• What is the design team like at Perplexity? Did you hire designers with AI literacy?
• How does working in a big corporation compare to a small startup, especially regarding learning opportunities?
• Is design dying? Will it still exist in five years? How is the role changing, and will design as we know it today still be relevant?
This episode's guest:
Henry Modisett is Perplexity’s VP of Design. Before joining Perplexity as a founding designer, Henry worked for Google and Quora. His experiences in those companies gave him a unique perspective on information seeking, which perfectly prepared him for his work at Perplexity.
