AI is now entering almost every stage of the UX Research workflow — from briefing and discussion guides to transcription, synthesis, and reporting.

But while the productivity gains are real, speed is not the only question.

In this solo episode, Emmanuelle explores where AI is genuinely helping researchers, where caution is needed, and why the future value of UX Research will depend increasingly on human judgment, accountability, and oversight.

In this episode:

• The current hype and anxiety around AI in UX Research
• Automation, machine learning, generative AI and agentic AI, what’s the difference?
• Where AI is already showing up in the research workflow
• Why faster outputs do not always mean deeper insights
• Data privacy, vendor trust and researcher accountability
• Why AI is pushing UX Research beyond productivity into strategic responsibility

If AI is becoming part of your workflow, this is a conversation worth having.
