Beyond Heuristics: Leveraging Simulated Users and Personas for Faster UX Testing Iterations

In this case study, we analyze the results from 20 usability tests and compare them to AI-powered simulated users and dynamic personas to assess the accuracy and limitations of using AI for rapid UX testing iterations. This study examines both the potential and constraints of AI-driven personas in UX research, offering insights into where they can complement, but not fully replace, traditional testing methods.In this case study, we analyze the results from 20 usability tests and compare them to AI-powered simulated users and dynamic personas to assess the accuracy and limitations of using AI for rapid UX testing iterations

Forum - The State of Change

After the talk, Kayleigh is joined on stage by Josh, Daniel, and Adam for a forum-style discussion where the room can steer. Bring your questions and strong opinions on how teams are iterating right now, what is genuinely speeding work up, where AI introduces risk or noise, and how roles and collaboration patterns are shifting as design, product, and engineering blur. Expect a candid, real-world conversation focused on techniques you can try, not theory.

Community is one part of how UXDX helps teams build better products.

Local events help people learn from peers and build their network. The reports, ebooks and knowledge library turn those conversations into practical ideas teams can apply.
