Assessment

3. Experience-based judgement

Can form their own judgement criteria and intuition based on previous professional experience, can articulate the basis for their decisions and take responsibility for their choices. Can distinguish between the individual's and the AI's respective contributions in decision-making, is not completely guided by the AI's ideas, and has confidence and assertiveness in personal decision-making.

What areas does it still make sense for a designer to have specialist knowledge in?

Areas that humans need to be good at:

• Requires empathy + creativity and strategy

• Human nature + abstraction

Survival

Visionary with a flair for exploring the unknown, setting trends and rewriting new ideas through personal charisma. Able to set goals and ideas that have never been set before, providing a visionary model for quantifying and training AI.

Translates visions and ideas to AI in a professional manner, ensuring that the algorithms that train AI and the content that is produced is accurate and efficient. Expertise in one or more areas, with extensive practical experience and judgement in the use of specialist skills and tools.

Train AI cognition in a prescriptive way, using existing programs and prescribed functions and paths in a repetitive manner. Assist the AI with complex and repetitive tasks that cannot be replaced by today's technology. Examples include the need for manual production, testing, etc., as humans that the AI controls and employs in the real world.

What does the design industry's job pyramid look like in the future era of AI?

Survival

Our vision: Designers in the future can actively adapt and optimise to the upper job types.

With the advent of the AI era, there will inevitably be humans or jobs that will be eliminated. Our education and industry systems need to follow up and optimize the operating system to provide direction for the young and confused people in the future.

What we do is to hope that more creative design practitioners can improve their competitiveness and transform into upper-level occupations. Fewer and fewer people are eliminated by artificial intelligence technology, or eliminated by people using AI technology.

At which level in the pyramid of the design industry do we intervene?

The initial goal of our "Design Survival Handbook" should be: to transform more operators into creators or intermediaries, to enhance the core value of human designers, and to have the competitiveness in the industry that will not be eliminated by AI or humans.

Survival

How might Design Survival Handbook actively intervene in the structure of the design industry?

This design survival guide will be practiced and optimized throughout the industry, and the experience will be refined into methods to guide the survival of human design creativity and dedicate it to future creative practitioners.

First of all, the principles, methods and evaluation of AI applied in design will be used in the following aspects: education, work process, industry rules and laws.
