AI in Design, the level NeXt UI/UX

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been the buzz word in the technology world for some time now. The potential and strength of AI is immense. AI is put to practice in a lot of arenas and as expected, this has delivered better results. Design is one such arena where AI could contribute much. The key facilitating factors and the benefits of employing AI in design are discussed below.

In design, the primary benefits that could be reaped with AI are the choices, speed and cost savings. With AI, a large amount of data can be analyzed and based on this a variety of designs can be created very quickly. Rather than focusing on creating a single design, a designer, in this way, can cherry-pick from the multiple choices offered to them. They would be using their skill in picking the most appropriate design generated with machine intelligence.

With the help of established UI library, Design prototyping could be done faster by scanning some basic sketches and entering a few parameters required. Using computer vision-enabled AI and machine learning design components with production ready codes could be generated now.
In cases where product localization and re-creating the same design in different languages are required, AI-based systems capable of ‘translating’ the master design to personalized and localized designs are available now. This saves much of the time as the designer only needs to do check the design and do the adjustments, if required.

Designers should not perceive AI as a threat to their careers and instead they may focus on co-creating better designs making use of AI tool and make themselves more productive.
