How AI can ease the work for UX Designers

In the last couple years Artificial Intelligence has taken the world by storm, starting to revolutionize the tech industry in many aspects, including UX. AI can help UX designers to automate some routine tasks that take a lot of time, providing more space for creativity and product quality improvement. It’s not likely that AI might replace human designers in the near future, but it can definitely ease the work of designers in some ways.

Let’s discuss how AI can be applied in UX Design these days: https://u.habr.com/nSXaV

GSN vs. Account Abstraction: Blockchain Superheroes in Search of Savings

In the world of blockchain, where the word "gas" is most often associated not with gas stations, but with fees for transactions in Ethereum, the search for ways to minimize these costs is becoming increasingly relevant. Less heartache for an empty wallet and more time to solve really important issues... for example, what to cook for lunch =)

Similar to the epic Batman vs Superman battle, compare GSN and Account Abstraction. As in any superhero story, each of them has its own unique abilities and disadvantages, which we will look at in detail: https://u.habr.com/RHWkK

GSN and dApps: A Novel without gas obstacles

Imagine: you've just created an incredible decentralized application, and it's so cool that even your grandmother wanted to try it. But once users are faced with the need to pay a commission, the entire UX rapidly slides down like a ball down a slide. Blockchain promises a bright future in which decentralization, transparency and security are our best friends, and it makes us pay for daily operations. Imagine if you had to pay every time you like on social networks or send a message in a messenger. It's terrible, isn't it? But dApps users face something like this every day.

But now, like a prince on a white horse, GSN (Gas Station Network) appears. With its help, developers can make their applications gasless, and users will finally be able to forget about commissions like a nightmare.

In this article, we will look at what GSN is, how it works, and how to implement it into your projects to please users: https://u.habr.com/0aHYT

Machines are learning to lie: The Dark Side of Intelligent Systems

Recent research published in the journal Patterns has shown examples of how artificial intelligence systems are learning to manipulate information and deceive people. The concept of deception by AI dates back to Alan Turing's famous 1950 paper, which introduced the "Imitation Game" - a test that evaluates whether a machine can demonstrate human-like intelligence: https://u.habr.com/XEHCM

"While in 2024 using XML looks a bit outdated, it still happens. And sometimes it happens we are to deal with XML having "free-structure", i.e. it couldn't be parsed into tree of user-defined structs. For JSON there still is a way to parse it with a single call into map[string]any and work with it using careful type assertions. Regretfully, there is no similar feature for XML (in Golang). Here I'll draft suitable function and demonstrate it - both for others and for myself if I ever need this again (recreating it from scratch may be somewhat painful)"
