Y Combinator Startup Podcast · How To Design In The Agent Era · 7 Aug 2026 podcast

And this is a great way to look at a bunch of things and go, I like that from this one.

I like this from this one and combine it and make so much more progress so much faster rather than being stuck in that creative rut.

And then the other thing is really cool is you're able to just say, hey, the thing that is my selection on the canvas and paper, and it knows what that is.

And now it's able to go to work on that, which is really powerful.

I think I had the wrong selection though.

Grab the YC card.

It's so cool to think about this world where you just go in, you leave a bunch of comments on the work, you go to bed, you wake up in the morning and they're all either addressed or lots of iterations for you to choose from are just sitting there waiting for you.

Okay, so it's actually spit back a variation here, but...

the alignment's a little screwed up there and it's still working.

So it's not done once it gives you something.

It's an iterative thing that's happening here, right?

I think one of the things that's interesting is it gives you a lot of inspiration and ideas and then you can start branching and going down a path.

But it's still the models that's doing the design and it still has some of the hallmarks of the things that you see models do frequently for better or for worse.

And so how do you when you're designing and you've got this inspiration, you're like, OK, this list is interesting.

I hadn't really thought of doing that.

Maybe I want to go with that.

How do you then make it more your own and get out of kind of the standard slop that a lot of them will spit out?

I mean, those are the kinds of things where the models like to add numbers or little icons or things like that there.

And yeah, it's really cool that you can just go through and delete it and it just snaps everything else up rather than leaving a blank space there.

Yeah.
