Ep 141 Design: A bigger strategy behind Apple’s Liquid Glass?

Stephen finally breaks the seal on AI — not with a prompt tutorial or workflow breakdown (he’s got a YouTube video for that), but with a deeper dive into the real conversation: how AI is shaking the creative industry to its core.


From WWDC buzz to Liquid Glass backlash, this one’s not about UI drama — it’s about system strategy. Stephen unpacks Apple’s latest moves through a deeper lens: unified design, AI readiness, and what it really takes to build future-proof experiences. Because this moment isn’t just about skeuomorphism making a comeback. It’s about Apple quietly setting the stage for a smarter, more integrated creative ecosystem — and what that signals for the rest of us.

• Why design decisions at Apple are never just about design
• The real story behind Liquid Glass (and why most people missed it)
• How systems thinking reveals the future of AI integration
• What creative leaders can learn from Apple’s long game

This one might age like milk — or prove prophetic. Either way, it’s a must-listen.
