Abstract [English]

Historical evidences show that new technology has cast its influence on the design world through time. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a new emerging technology which is being explored by many industries including the design industry. Nowadays AI is used for creativity on a larger scale. It is used for aesthetic applications, design trends, game design and other visual media. Development of AI generative tools is considered as most impactful in the field of design. It is inevitable that upcoming technologies will be noticed and used by all types of consumers and therefore anyone can create designs. Thus, trepidation of killing artistic skills in the field of design has become one of the major concerns for the designers. To stay competitive and ready for the global market designers have to use AI and hence ‘Collaboration’ between technology and artistic skills is indispensible for truly original, qualitative, empathetic and passion driven designs. Since this paper is from designers’ point of view it is focused on the consequences of using AI on artistic skills and design industry. It examines the quantitative and qualitative survey with data collection from designers, design educators and design students who know about the use of AI in design and art. The responders from the design fraternity opined that as long as AI does not develop empathy and innovative creativity, design jobs are safe. Symbiosis of humans and their emotional connection with each other will only create captivated designs.
