Micro UIs have come to dominate the experience people are having with technology in China, where WeChat users send friends private messages, interact with brand accounts, pay for things online and offline, call for rides, book airfare, and get hotel rooms, all within a single messaging-style app. According to Statista, at the end of 2023, WeChat had over 1.3 billion monthly active users. To put that in context, last year the Amazon app had over 197 million active monthly users, and TikTok had 1.2 billion.

Micro UIs are here and need to be a part of your design and deployment strategy where AI agents are concerned. In this episode, Cole Gentile, a Solutions Designer at OneReach.ai, demonstrates micro UIs in action. Cole designed most of the demos that are available in the myAI experience at OneReach.ai. Many of these experiences feature micro UIs and he’ll show us how they can generate contracts and take payments in a healthcare setting. He also takes us through a newer, more dynamic retail journey that includes a vast array of micro UIs orchestrated as part of a seamless multi-agent experience.

Tune in to this episode to see these micro UIs in action and explore how they can enhance your user experiences.

The Agile Trap Designers Fall into: Feeding the Beast
  • Agile teams are fast, but designers get stuck in an infinite loop of visual work: redesigning the same components over and over instead of solving real UX problems.
  • Design systems break that cycle, defining the building blocks once, freeing designers to focus on how the product works, not how it looks.
  • When the basics are in place, teams can start working together sooner, prototype faster, and release incremental features without the interface falling apart.

AI can create wireframes, synthesize research, and draft copy fast. What it can’t do: understand your users, carry context, or be accountable when something goes wrong. That’s still you.

AI Is Your New Intern, Not Your Replacement
  • AI is not replacing UX pros; it’s automating repetitive tasks and augmenting human capabilities.
  • Think of AI as an intern: quick, smart, but dependent on human direction, context, and judgment.
  • Human skills like empathy, research, systems thinking, and ethical decision-making are more important than ever.
  • The future belongs to designers who incorporate AI to accelerate execution and devote more time to strategic, human-centered work.

How the most intentional designers are working with AI — and why “vibe coding” really needs a better name.

Article by Jim Gulsen
Beyond Vibe Coding: A Designer’s Case for Directed Generation
  • The term “vibe coding” initially described an unstructured approach with minimal accountability, which doesn’t apply to professional design. It risks oversimplifying AI-assisted processes, ignoring the intentionality and expertise involved in high-level design. 
  • In practice, designers engage in “directed generation,” setting clear constraints, selecting references, and refining details. The AI model follows the designer’s guidance rather than taking initiative.
