  8. Celilsemi Sam Erkiner presents Codex On Brand at Meetup 03.

    AI-assisted interface and design-system practitioner

The questions after the demo

Not a keynote. A working session.

The screen is only the beginning. The value lives in the direct question, the honest answer, and the introduction made after the chairs start moving.
