Friction, Feedback and the Future of Creative Work with Designer Pablo Stanley
Designer, illustrator, and creative entrepreneur Pablo Stanley joins Cameron Adams, to explore how AI is transforming creativity. From vibe coding and cultivating taste to the rise of hyper-personalized content, they dive into how AI is reshaping the creative process. Pablo shares his thoughts on the role of taste, the importance of friction and how he uses vibe coding to bring prototypes to life. Cam’s notes on Substack: promptedwithcam.substack.comKey Quotes: “AI can do a lot of stuff. It can do volume and it can do it really quick and can give you all the different options, but taste will allow you to know what to ask from it.”“We’re on the sidelines looking at the robot surf and saying like, no, you’re doing the surfing wrong, but the robot is doing the surfing. It’s the fun part, you know?”“I wish sometimes that LLMs…potentially have a slider or something that’s the friction slider…at the moment, it feels like it’s all the way up and it’s always…just like a yes man, and it’s always saying, yes, you’re the best.”“Taste is a skill that you have to develop. It’s a skill that comes with privilege too.”Timestamps 00:44 Welcome + Intro to Pablo02:03 The prompt - from Pablo’s head, to the page, to AI 05:47 From six-finger hands to stunning renders: how fast AI has improved06:23 Low-risk projects and AI experimentation08:50 Building Lummi & real team workflows (language, contracts, ops)15:28 “AI makes volume, taste makes value” — the privilege of developing taste18:56 Hyper-personalized feeds, Minority Report vibes, and brand content23:03 Creative friction: do we need a “friction slider” for AI feedback?27:44 Vibe coding: creating fast prototypes (+ Taco cameo 🐶)35:07 All-Star Creative Team37:41 Designer Reveal: Check out Alvin, Pablo and AI’s collaboration 39:45 Rapid-fire questionsLinks: Cam on LinkedInPablo on LinkedInSee Pablo’s sketch and Alvin, Pablo and AI’s creative collaborationSubscribe to the Prompted Newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
