Studentische Vortragsreihe Point to Space betreut von Prof. Philipp Thesen. Zoom (Technology has always influenced the work, methods and tools of the creative community... so does AI. This talk reflects on the challenges and fears designers and artists are facing when it comes to the tasks that will be substituted by ML and AI. Representing the misleading perceptions, communication and ways of drawing unrealistic expectations of the technology, by media and scientific scholars.
Resulting in a reality check of a selection of current projects and algorithms that support the design process. Followed by a section about the great opportunities and new roles for designers and artists generated by the technology. Such as co-creation with algorithms and data scientists and the shift from creator to curator, amongst others. Furthermore an overview of the development of Human-Centered-AI principles is provided. Showing differences and similarities in those approaches, and making clear what kind of answers are still missing. Those insights are then mapped to the role of UX in an industrial setting, making a connection to a real world scenario.
