Using AI Without Losing Your Judgment

Using AI Without Losing Your Judgment is a hands-on, screen-free workshop for product people, designers, founders, and builders who use AI at work but don't want to become approval machines for confident robot output. No tool demos, prompt magic, or "automate your job by Tuesday" promises. Instead, we'll go retro with paper canvases, sticky notes, real conversation, and actual human thinking. Together, we'll explore where AI helps, where it creates blind spots, and where humans still need to slow down, question the output, and make the call. What to expect:You'll work in small groups to map what you already use AI for, what you feel tempted or pressured to hand over, and where your judgment needs to stay in the loop. You'll leave with a simple frame for deciding what AI can help with, what humans must still decide, and what risks to watch before trusting the output. Come with an open mind, a real work challenge, and a willingness to think without outsourcing the whole thing to AI. We'll close with social drinks. Who is this Meetup for?Product managers, designers, researchers, founders, developers, and builders are welcome. Spots are limited.
