With over twenty-five years of experience, Gleb has elevated product design to an art form, earning a stunning roster of world-class clients including Apple, Google, Amazon, Huawei, Xiaomi, Honda, Mitsubishi, and Mercedes-Benz. His signature style, inspired by the beauty of the natural world, is exquisitely detailed, fluid, immersive, and full of life. Founder and CEO of Milkinside, a San Francisco-based design studio, and Chief Design Officer at Brain Technologies, Gleb helps define a more human future for AI, focusing on emotion, trust, and meaningful interaction between people and machines.

the studio

Milkinside is a world-renowned Silicon Valley design studio recognized for its refined approach to digital product design, motion, and cinematic CGI. Founded in 2011, the studio works with global technology companies to shape next-generation interfaces where complexity is translated into clarity, emotion, and precise execution. Known for its high standards of craft and taste, Milkinside focuses on designing systems that feel human, confident, and durable over time. Its work spans AI-driven platforms, operating systems, mobile products, and brand ecosystems, often supporting teams navigating large-scale transformation. Milkinside's work has earned multiple international awards including Red Dot, Webby, and CES Innovation Awards, defining future-facing digital experiences.

the talk

Designing the Human Layer: Why the Future of AI Belongs to Taste, Not Algorithms

LANGUAGE: ENGLISH

Generative systems create endless outputs, yet struggle with intention, emotion, and the deep sense of meaning that defines great design. The next decade will not be shaped by tools that automate creativity, but by a new layer of taste and judgment that guides these systems. Drawing from real work building AI systems for global companies and future-facing platforms at Milkinside and Brain Technologies, Gleb shares how taste becomes functional, how judgment can be encoded, how we build emotional intelligence into products, and how designers can shape the next wave of AI-enhanced digital experiences. This isn't theory—it's practical insights from designing the human layer of AI.
