Follow the 12 design guidelines in this article. ## [The $1M AI film festival](https://roughcut.heyeddie.ai/p/the-1m-ai-film-festival) _2026-08-07 · Michael Hugo · The Rough Cut_ A next generation of filmmakers and the next generation of audiences just showed up in the same week and neither one looks anything like the industry expected. ## [UX Roundup: Simplicity | Fact Flooding | AI Integration | AI Adoption Personas | Framing | Tone of Voice | Timelines | Cybersecurity | Agentic E-commerce](https://jakobnielsenphd.substack.com/p/ux-roundup-20260807) _2026-08-07 · Jakob Nielsen · Jakob Nielsen on UX_ Keep It Simple | AI uses fact flooding to overwhelm users and persuade them | Deep AI integration in business processes | 5 personas for adopting AI | The framing effect | Using AI to change the tone of voice of your writing | Timelines: a chrono-based UI | AI improves cybersecurity | Increasing use of AI agents for online shopping ## [UX Roundup: Simplicity | Fact Flooding | AI Integration | AI Adoption Personas | Tone of Voice | Timelines | Cybersecurity | Agentic E-commerce](https://www.uxtigers.com/post/ux-roundup-20260807) _2026-08-07 · Jakob Nielsen · UX Tigers_ Keep It Simple | AI uses fact flooding to overwhelm users and persuade them | Deep AI integration in business processes | 5 personas for adopting AI | Using AI to change the tone of voice of your writing | Timelines: a chrono-based UI | AI improves cybersecurity | Increasing use of AI agents for online shopping ## [The Framing Effect in UX: Identical Facts, Opposite Decisions](https://www.uxtigers.com/post/framing) _2026-08-06 · Jakob Nielsen · UX Tigers_ Describe an option as a gain, and people play it safe; describe the same option as a loss, and they gamble.

This behavior, called satisficing, decides which link gets clicked, which default survives, and which of your features nobody ever sees. Design so that the first plausible option is also the correct option, and the lazy click becomes the right click. ## [UX Roundup: Design Guidelines Changing for AI | AI Anxiety | Toggle Switches | Hedonic Adaptation | Erdős Problems | Glanceable Monitoring](https://jakobnielsenphd.substack.com/p/ux-roundup-20260803) _2026-08-03 · Jakob Nielsen · Jakob Nielsen on UX_ Design guidelines held steady for 30 years but are shifting with AI | Users who are anxious about AI use it more, not less | A toggle is a light switch, not a form field | The same design scores lower every year | What are the Erdős problems and why are they relevant for AI? | An ambient monitoring interface with glanceable feedback on agent progress cut errors in half ## [UX Roundup: Design Guidelines Changing for AI | AI Anxiety | Toggle Switches | Erdős Problems | Glanceable Monitoring](https://www.uxtigers.com/post/ux-roundup-20260803) _2026-08-03 · Jakob Nielsen · UX Tigers_ Design guidelines held steady for 30 years but are shifting with AI | Users who are anxious about AI use it more, not less | A toggle is a light switch, not a form field | What are the Erdős problems and why are they relevant for AI? | An ambient monitoring interface with glanceable feedback on agent progress cut errors in hal ## [Hedonic Adaptation: The Same Design Scores Lower Every Year](https://www.uxtigers.com/post/hedonic-adaptation) _2026-08-02 · Jakob Nielsen · UX Tigers_ Users adapt to good design the way lottery winners adapt to wealth: the thrill fades and the baseline resets. Hold a design constant, and its satisfaction ratings will sag year after year as expectations rise; my rule of thumb is a drift of 2–5% annually. Budget continuous improvement just to stay level, and spend it on killing recurring irritations before adding sparkle. ## [UX Roundup: Web Design for AI Agents | AI Assistants Beat Brand Websites | Ship, Learn, Iterate | AI as Business Strategist | AI-Assisted Creativity for Children | Infinite Canvas | Scott McCloud](https://jakobnielsenphd.substack.com/p/ux-roundup-20260731) _2026-07-31 · Jakob Nielsen · Jakob Nielsen on UX_ Agent-ready web design lifts AI task success | Shoppers now pick AI assistants over brand websites, 41% to 38% | Learn from reality: build and iterate | AI getting better at business strategy, but still not good enough to run your company | AI raised the floor but lowered the ceiling in children’s storytelling | Infinite canvas as a UI space for organizing and collaborating on unstructured… ## [Death to Blu-ray](https://roughcut.heyeddie.ai/p/death-to-blu-ray) _2026-07-31 · Michael Hugo · The Rough Cut_ Thrift store shelves are emptying, and nobody’s coming to restock them.

Fix your journey’s worst moment, build 1 genuine high point, and never let an error be the last thing users see: memories, not experiences, drive repeat business and word of mouth. ## [AI Turns Competence into a Commodity: Evidence from 2.26 Million Freelance Contracts](https://www.uxtigers.com/post/ai-skills-gap) _2026-07-22 · Jakob Nielsen · UX Tigers_ AI narrows skill gaps by helping weak performers the most. Employers are reacting: hiring in AI-exposed job categories now weights human capital 7.8% less and price 1.1% more than before ChatGPT and the demand premium for highly skilled workers is shrinking.
