Two sides.
One question.
The room decides.
AI agents are starting to look, compare, decide, and act for us. That shift raises a bigger question for design: who are we actually designing for?
Two practitioners take opposing sides. A leadership panel follows, bringing the debate into the realities of what teams are building today.

The room weighs in before and after. See which arguments hold up and which ones actually change minds.
The Leadership Panel
Leaders across design and technology explore what the debate means for their teams, products, and decisions.
The Conversation
Questions, drinks, introductions, and plenty more to argue about.
Agents vs. Interfaces
When agents can act on our behalf, what are we actually designing for?
Expanding the conversation.
After the duel, we bring together a panel to discuss what actually gets built.
Leaders across design, product, and technology will unpack what Agents vs. Interfaces means in practice: how we build, where we place trust, what belongs on the roadmap, and how much control people actually want to hand over.
