Abstract

With the development of artificial intelligence technology, AI has been more and more employed in the process of design, providing unlimited possibilities for future design tools. In order to promote AI technology to better assist design and meet the needs of non-professional designers who want to participate in design, we research on design tools with AI’s participation, based on the ‘double diamond’ design process model, combining reasonable design thinking processes and design tools. Taking the expansion stage of students’ thinking as the starting point, we use the WoZ method to conduct experiments and compare the different effects of AI’s assistants with different functions in different thinking stages. We explore what role AI should play in the design process and how strong it should interfere with the designers and put forward some ideas for future design tools.
