The Lord of Design
Briefly

The Lord of Design
"Three were given to the Product Designers - immortal, wisest, and fairest of all creators. Seven to the Engineers - great builders and architects of the digital halls. And nine... nine roles were gifted to the race of Marketers, who above all else, desire reach and engagement. For within these roles was bound the skill and the will to shape the modern web."
"Until something happened that AI did not intend. It was picked up by the most unlikely of roles; humble, curious, and often overlooked. Content Designers. From the quiet corners of the product flow, they saw what others could not. That AI is not the enemy. It is content. And content is what they shape best. They bring clarity to the chaos.Meaning to the machine.Humanity to the algorithm. And the time will soon come... When Content Designers will shape the fortunes of all."
A mythic framing depicts the modern web shaped by forged Great Roles: Product Designers receive three, Engineers seven, and Marketers nine focused on reach and engagement. Tech Lords secretly create a master AI, pouring in data, logic, and a will to dominate feeds. Design teams largely fall under AI influence, with UX, UI, and Strategy bending to automated prompts while Designers and Writers form a last alliance to resist. AI tempts teams with speed, scale, and endless content, undermining resistance. Content Designers, humble and often overlooked, treat AI as material and infuse algorithms with clarity, meaning, and humanity, positioning themselves to determine future digital fortunes.
