When it comes to AI, Pietro Schirano has quickly become one of my favorite thinkers and builders.
Earlier this year he faced a heck of a choice… accept a full-time offer to lead a team at Anthropic, or start his own company.
Thankfully he decided to build the new design tool MagicPath 🤩
So in today’s interview we go deep into the future of prototyping, design workflows, and what it takes to catalyze your career with AI.
This is easily one of the spiciest episodes yet 🔥
Some highlights:
How design workflows will evolve
Using AI as a collaborator not just a tool
How Pietro was able to build influence at Anthropic
Why interactive prototypes are becoming table stakes
What designers need to understand to master the models
Why design architects will be the highest paid role in the future
+ a lot more
🤝 WITH FRAMER
Framer just released two killer AI features that I have to tell you about…
The first is Wireframer
You can chat with AI to skip the blank canvas and spark ideas. There’s no easier way to get a responsive page with structure and starter content ready to edit.
The second is Workshop
It’s a way to create advanced components using natural language. So you can spin up all types of new visual effects — no coding required.
So it’s just another reason why I recommend Framer to absolutely everyone.

🎓 KEY TAKEAWAY
Designers are becoming AI architects
We’ve talked about the shift from static mockups to prototypes to designers owning the frontend…
But Pietro pushes it even further 👀
In the future, the most impactful designers won’t just build. They’ll control agents that run research, explore concepts, audit production, etc… anything that helps move the work forward.
“The role has fundamentally changed… in the past, if you’re working on a SaaS application, your entire focus was to optimize the flow…now the difference is that you’re not only dealing with customers, but you actually employ an “entity” to do a task”
I’ve been jamming with my friend Kyle Zantos on a content OS for Dive Club and you should see how he wields these models.
It’s inspiring and honestly a bit terrifying too. Because it’s very easy to see how someone with that level of agency/capability can blow past me if I stay static. The gap is widening between people who adapt vs. people who wait.
So if you’re interested in what it takes to truly get the most out of AI this episode is just about as good as it gets 👇
