Abstract

With the advent of AI in research and practice, the research community has started discussing how end-user development might be affected. This paper aims to outline a number of challenges that might arise when end-users aim to integrate AI in their software creations. It examines these issues for different stages of a design process (ideation, conceptualization, implementation and evaluation) and concludes with an outlook towards overcoming these issues.
