" The key to my passions is story telling through the eyes of the audience, I believe that ai technology as a branding concept designer, or UX UI & AI Digital Designer go hand in hand, my reasons being we are living in an digital age where ai is becoming adaptable and what we need to consider is the environments to tackle a problem within society where by we should consider elderly, disAbility and Ethnic groups to be involved within society digitally but also our younger generation through both using the senses and the AI presence as technology evolves to engage society within the environments, to connect whether this be a to b travelling or having a companion or engaging in activities together with nature or in the city or even small towns, that are needing help, one thing I complement Asia on is there embracing AI and user experiences for children to motivate there educations or Singapore working with hotels to bring nature inside and outside the buildings bringing relaxation & harmony to the communities, why cant we challenge where we use digital space, to enhance present states. Example: I use Audible when I'm Jogging because I find it challenging doing both physical activities and academic listening to bring me in to a present state, that for me is where technology works better engaging outside. Using both neuroscience or psychology to enhance peoples life's I feel is now developing in appreciation of well-being and happiness and this can be a game changer. Not feeling alone I feel is an importance to feel included and we need to educate people through experience: the thing about being human is empathy and experiences go hand in hand, as I was told to go outward is to go inward, from what I've learned I could give money to a charity but I think an experience is far more rewarding...

UX design really considers captures and empathises with the audience they are focusing on and engaging that person to feel included, but maybe digital can be included with present state to challenge who's being trained in a sense. I use A.I in my story telling on Instagram to inform the senses of the prints story line because I find scent a fascinating topic to express through ai, one interesting information I found out Disney use scent in the parade in Disney world to enhance the experience, like cookie smells whilst your watching a character in the kitchen cooking, but the smell is not happening they just used technology and that's super dooper clever (Imagine Engineering) I've been exploring in Perfume Prints UK ,as to me it tells a exciting story and I'm learning with a passion my own rhythm to customer experience through films and I'm rethinking about addressing things I consider important. However, I think we should be developing with societies and challenging the ai to help us grow together and work in groups or teams creatively and I think AI Cant work without the humans if we see it as a challenge and insight, its impossible but finding the right tools to use ai is the key, it can only give so much but then we give more when we work as a team and I think its a bit like Lego building Designers are needed more than ever."
