Design New Quality Productivity Under AI Computational Thinking

Before the birth of AI, design under "design thinking" and calculation under "computational thinking" were two relatively parallel lines that were not strongly related. They had their own principles, systems and methodologies. Under the leadership of designers, they together form a three-element model of "designer-software and hardware tools-product".

With the continuous iteration and explosion of technology, powerful AI technology has gradually blurred the boundaries of the three elements, causing technology measured in "years" to evolve into technological explosions measured in "months" or even "weeks". In this context, designers slowly discovered that under the influence of AI technology, their own positioning, value and development have become blurred, and they have become confused about technology and the future.

This workshop will closely use the "three-element model" as a compass. By returning to the origin, supplemented by the mutual transformation relationship between the three elements, designers can understand the essence behind the phenomenon and improve design in the new era. Reposition and analyze the principles of "computational thinking" to allow designers to understand the advantages and disadvantages of AI technology, allowing all technologies to return to the essence of tools. This allows designers to become technology swordsmen, use new technologies to maximize design empowerment, build new design quality productivity forces, and calmly respond to opportunities and challenges in the new era.

New Design Quality Productivity Forces is the extension and application of New Quality Productivity Forces in the design field. "New" emphasizes innovation as the core, "Quality" emphasizes quality as the goal, and "Productivity Forces" is the combination point and driving force of "Innovation" and "Quality".

All in all, although innovation is the core of new design productivity, it does not mean the subversion of traditional design. Its real purpose is to integrate various advanced technologies into traditional design, transform it with innovation, and upgrade it with technology, so as to empower and reshape traditional design with high quality and high efficiency.
