This paper unveils a pioneering approach aimed at fostering innovation and design thinking among students through the integration of Design-Thinking (DT) and User-Centered Design Process (UCD) activities, facilitated by the remarkable capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI). The objective is to not only enhance collaboration but also usher in datadriven decision-making at an accelerated pace, ultimately spurring greater adoption of these vital skills. The AI-facilitated design-thinking process not only delivered desirable outcomes but did so in significantly less time than traditional methods. By acting as a collaborative partner, AI streamlined the decision-making process, providing participants with data-driven insights that propelled their ideation and problem-solving efforts. This new approach opened a new era where AI becomes an integral part of the learning process, serving as a catalyst for innovation and design thinking.
The central premise of this proposed approach is to explore the potential of AI as a facilitator and collaborator in the realm of design-thinking, with a specific focus on expediting the decision-making process through data-driven insights through AI models. The innovative concept has been rigorously tested through the development of an AI-powered whiteboard software harnessing OpenAI’s APIs and a bespoke machine learning model, tailored to user-profile data management. This cutting-edge software was then deployed in a real-world scenario where a group of users engaged in a Design-Thinking session, thereby gauging its effectiveness in augmenting the design process.
