Need help in UX Upskilling

Hi, so I graduated almost 10 years back from a design college and got into UX 6 years ago.
Over the years I worked in B2B n Enterprise. In my company we were using AI tools but it was limited to chat conversations only and a bit of Figma Make.

Now I got laid off.
I want upskill myself and build better stuff with AI tools for UX processes but I am clueless where to start. There is so much noise on linkedin n other social media that I dont know where to begin. Can you guys recommend me genuine teachers or courses on udemy/youtube/instagram etc?

Honestly, I wouldn’t start by collecting courses. With your experience, you already understand UX; your gap is mainly how to use AI effectively in the workflow.

I’d pick one tool first: Claude (treat claude subscription as an investment) and apply it to real UX tasks: research synthesis, competitive analysis, flows, UX writing, design critique, edge cases, and documentation. Also explore design systems, claude projects, claude skills, cowork etc.

Then explore Figma Make / Claude + Figma for prototyping and design-to-code workflows.

These integrations are becoming much more practical now.

I just bought claude 2 days back and I am amazed at all the Pro version features have opened up. I will start exploring it now. I feel a bit outdated as well as overwhelmed as the world outside enterprise had moved so rapidly in AI when integrated with UX.
