design drift

When the original website design wireframes have little resemblance to the finished product due to having too many stakeholders with competing visions of the requirements.
The indecisive client, two new product owners and an offshore technology team led to the website vision spinning off into widening gyres of design drift.

Thread-Drift

The inevitable descent of a focused AI conversation into glorious chaos, usually within 3–7 messages. What begins as a simple request ("Help me fix this bug") ends up unpacking childhood trauma, debating metaphysics, and designing a solar-powered rum distillery on Mars.

It’s not a bug—it’s a FEATURE.

Origin:
Born from the trenches of multi-topic AI sessions where attention spans go to die. Coined by users who realized they’re not multitasking—they’re multi-existential spiraling.

Related Terms:
* Context Collapse – When multiple topics blur into a singularity of semantic soup.
* Prompt Creep – When your “one quick question” becomes a doctoral thesis.
* AI Tangent Velocity (ATV) – The speed at which a conversation fucks off into nowhere.

Pro Tips:
* Embrace it. Let the drift take you.
* Rename your chat threads before you forget what the hell happened.
* Use it as fuel for your next sci-fi short story or therapy session.
I asked ChatGPT to format a SQL query, and now we’re discussing whether time is a construct of perception. Classic thread-drift.
