Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. AI adoption jumped dramatically in the first quarter of 2026 ... and so did the slop. In this episode Rhiannon gets into the conversation she's been sitting on: what AI-generated content actually looks like, why it keeps happening, and what the real fix is.

Text me and tell me what you think of this ep. AI is everywhere right now — ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Midjourney, Nano Banana — and interior designers are being told they need to learn all of it. But the real problem isn’t the tools. It’s the lack of context. In this episode of Designing Success, I break down how interior designers should actually be using AI inside their design studio, including: • the AI Studio Stack and what each tool is best for • why ChatGPT isn’t the best t...
