The main aim of Figoli’s thesis was to clarify how artificial intelligence can be implemented in practice in the design process, exploiting its potential and helping designers understand how to cooperate efficiently with it. To this end, first, an extensive literature review on the new human-machine relationship was performed. Then, a workshop was organized, where sixteen participants were asked to design a simple object with the support of different tools based on artificial intelligence.
The book describes the results of this research activity. Firstly, it outlines the state-of-the-art of design, with a focus on collaboration, and describes artificial intelligence’s main features. Then, it illustrates how this technology can impact the design process, particularly in the early stages. Finally, it focuses on the consequences of introducing artificial intelligence within human design teams, especially for human trust and creativity
