Leveraging Generative AI to Enhance Conceptual Abilities and Communication in Design | AICAD 2024

A lecture/workshop from the AICAD 2024 Symposium: Teach for Tomorrow: Redesigning the Future. The session focuses on the use of generative AI with design students.

Summary:
In an era marked by rapid technological advancements, educators are constantly seeking innovative methods to enhance student learning outcomes. In this collaborative workshop participants will get hands-on experience practicing with exercises that integrate Generative AI tools (Chat GPT + Visual Electric + Scribbled Diffusion) to augment student conceptual abilities and expedite the process of sketching and drawing, thereby improving communication within the design domain. Participants will get collaborate using generative AI while learning unique facilitation methods for a design classroom.   In conclusion, this workshop underscores the significant potential of Generative AI to support design education by enhancing student conceptual abilities and expediting the communication of ideas through sketching and drawing. By embracing emerging technologies, educators can empower the next generation of designers to push the boundaries of creativity and innovation in an increasingly digitized world.
