Conference Agenda

The advent of Generative Artificial Intelligence is setting new frontiers for our community, promising to revolutionise how we conceive, evaluate, and educate in engineering design disciplines. During the event, we will discuss the possibility of opening a new SIG on Generative Artificial Intelligence & Design that aims to explore and harness these technological advancements to enrich the design research community and foster a collaborative environment.

Our meta objective is to cultivate active research on GenAI within the design research community, fostering collaboration, engagement, and knowledge sharing. We aim to empower diverse members of our community and facilitate a comprehensive understanding and application of GenAI to augment the traditional and future landscapes of design.

 During the meeting, we will discuss the following points: 

- Focus Areas: The Role of Generative AI in Design, Large Language Models (LLMs) in Design, GenAI in Design Education, Making GenAI Accessible for Designer.

- Activities and Initiatives: workshops, webinars, and symposia aimed at knowledge sharing and community building. We plan to facilitate networking and idea exchange sessions, host conferences and SIG sessions at major design events, and engage in collaborative research projects that explore the potential of AI in design.

- Plan of Action: extend our group, define our activity calendar, and engage in regular reporting to capture and share insights from our initiatives.
