E263 - Talking to dead people is about to get real

This week on the show, we talk about technology that lets us “speak” to our dead relatives. We also answer some questions from the community about stepping on a Product Manager's toes, the practical difference between UX, HF, and HCI in the workforce, and advice on pushing back against dark patterns.

Recorded live on November 3rd, 2022, hosted by Nick Roome with Heidi Mehrzad.
