When Designers Collaborate with Algorithms



Questions Will AI Algorithms “automate� some of what designers do today, so that designers can focus on higher value tasks? How will this impact the design process?

Will collaborating with algorithms change the way designers approach design and critical thinking?

Will designers solve bigger problems and iterate faster compressing the design lifecycle?

How will this impact the design education process?
