A Case Stady to Use Generative AI for the UI/UX Design Education

Abstract

This paper presents, an attempt to utilize generative AI in design education. In a class on the theme of UI/UX design, we actively utilized generative AI in the production process. As a result, two possibilities and two challenges became clear. The possibilities are 1) that it can double the production speed, and 2) that it can be a great help to students who are not good at visual expression. The challenges are 1) that there is a big difference in the students' mentality between producing something by themselves and instructing a generative AI, and 2) that even when letting an AI generate something, it is necessary for them to have some idea of the goal themselves.
