Confronting Artificial Intelligence

Details

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly shifting how designers and creatives approach their craft and processes, but what does this actually mean? And should we be concerned or enthusiastic? Is it another tool, or does it possess greater potential? And most importantly, how will it shape the future of design? 

We invited attendees to join the Chicago Graphic Design Club and One Design Company as we kicked off the Confronting Design series with a conversation about AI. Together we will explored AI’s applications, both positive and negative, engage in thought-provoking conversations with panelists from various practices and dive deep into ethics, creativity, agency, intelligence, and more.

Following our discussion, participants engaged in interactive small-group sessions facilitated by panelists. Through role-playing and exploration of real-life scenarios, we will examine how AI can be integrated into our practices and its broader implications. By the end of the activity, attendees gained a deeper understanding of how AI can manifest in their own work and larger, broader contexts.

Afterwards we’ll came back together to share discoveries and collectively craft a group declaration of intent on using AI responsibly and ethically as a Chicago design community. 

Panelists included: Heather Snyder Quinn, Ashley Lukasik, Sharlene King, Steve Ryan, and John Pobojewski.

Special thanks to David Sieren and One Design Company for their partnership on this event and event visual identity.
