Tibor Kalman

Tibor Kalman appears in Stefan Sagmeister: Finally, something good. as Stefan Sagmeister’s mentor and as an example in the Q&A about AI and design’s future. Sagmeister says Kalman’s value did not come only from conventional craft mastery, but from charisma, ideas, vision, and a strong point of view.

In the wiki, Kalman anchors the source’s Human Judgment Under AI point: if AI can help more people produce artifacts, design value may move toward judgment, vision, stance, and the ability to make ideas happen through multiple means.
