Diamonds Are Not Forever: How AI Killed the Double Diamond

For 20 years, the Double Diamond defined design thinking: A tidy diverge‑converge loop taught in every design school. But beneath the symmetry lies an inconvenient truth: It’s slow, siloed.. And built for a pre‑AI world. 

Leading with real-world examples with some of the world's most famous brands and backed by fresh Harvard research on AI‑augmented teams, this session shows why the Double Diamond is no longer fit for purpose - and exactly what to build instead.
