Rooz Mahdavian - Designing frontier interfaces at Neuralink and Apple

We’re talking about craft in B2B SaaS... but what is it like designing for frontier interfaces like the Apple watch or even neural interfaces?

We find out in this week’s episode with Rooz Mahdavian. (https://x.com/roozm)

He’s the design engineer at Neuralink so we're about to get pretty nerdy and talk about what it’s like designing an experience that allows someone to use a computer with just their mind.

The level of detail and first-principles design thinking is truly impressive.

Some highlights:

- What it looks like to design for delight in neural interfaces

- What Neuralink is looking for in their 2nd design engineer role

- What it takes to design frontier interfaces at Apple and Neuralink

- The evolution from Apple Watch Siri face to brain-computer interfaces

- Rooz’s vision for “daydreaming with computers” and direct visual imagery transfer

- Reimagining a cursor for a neural interface - from color-based feedback to circular reticles

- + a lot more
