Cool research paper from Google. This is what clever context engineering looks like. It proposes Tool-Use-Mixture (TUMIX), leveraging diverse tool-use strategies to improve reasoning. This work shows how to get better reasoning from LLMs by running a bunch of diverse agents (text-only, code, search, etc.) in parallel and letting them share notes across a few rounds. Instead of brute-forcing more samples, it mixes strategies, stops when confident, and ends up both more accurate and cheaper. Mix different agents, not just more of one: They ran 15 different agent styles (CoT, code execution, web search, guided variants). Each agent sees both the question and other agents…

Aesthetic-Usability Effect Users perceive aesthetically pleasing designs as more usable. AI can generate polished visuals, but a good Product Designer ties aesthetics to real usability and Jobs-to-Be-Done. 2. Doherty Threshold Productivity peaks when responses are <400ms. AI won’t fix latency. Carefully selected design patterns (skeletons, loaders) keep users engaged. E.g., try to search for posts on LinkedIn and note animated placeholders. 3. Von Restorff Effect In a group of similar items, the standout is most remembered. AI can suggest highlights, but choosing the right primary action needs product/UX insight. 4…
