AI Confidence Without Evidence

Spotting and preventing 'truth flavored data' in product work

If you could invite the sharpest minds in UX Research, Product, and Design to dinner in San Diego, who would you choose?

...for us, it's you.

This September, we’re setting the table for something special. The Insight Exchange, a complimentary, intimate dinner series hosted by Askable.

Each dinner we host brings together UX, product, and research leaders for a single, focused conversation. The kind that doesn’t happen at conferences. No panels. No pitches. Just a small group in the same room, working through the same problems.

For this dinner, we’re starting from a finding that stopped us in our tracks. 

In research conducted by Askable with 30 UX, product, and research practitioners, 22 out of 23 described real time savings from AI. But only 7 described AI as embedded in ways that also held up on quality. Speed is the easy win. The harder question is whether the work being produced faster is work teams would stand behind. 

We’re calling it AI confidence without evidence: the gap between moving fast and working well. It shows up as a plausible-sounding synthesis that glosses over nuance. With outputs that are 60-80% right, it's enough to be useful, but not enough to trust without checking. Teams are building on foundations that AI is quietly exposing. 

The roundtable will be a facilitated conversation and will focus on how product and UX teams are closing that gap: the governance, capability, and integration decisions that turn individual AI wins into something the whole team and your stakeholders can actually rely on. 

While your competitors settle for truth-flavored data, you’ll have the real thing. That’s the conversation. 

What to expect:

  • $50 Uber voucher for travel to / from dinner
  • Cocktail hour prior to dinner
  • Relatable UX was stories
  • New connections and ways of thinking

A conversational dinner series for UX, CX and product design leaders

We know leadership can be hard. Real hard. These events aim to provide a space for leaders to share their wins and war stories with people who (actually) get it.
