AI in Society

Mentioned in previous blogs, I highlight that society is driven with a cognitive overload of choice. We have too many options and far little desire to choose. In 1989, Mr. Keedy states that,

“Now most graphic designers need results fast; formal and conceptual innovations only slow down commercial accessibility. It is hard for a generation raised in a supposedly “alternative” youth culture, which put every kid from Toledo to Tokyo in the same baggy pants and t-shirt, to believe that relevant forms of expression can even exist outside of pop culture.

What is left of an avant-garde in graphic design isn’t about resistance, cultural critique, or experimenting with meaning. Now the avant-garde only consists of technological mastery: who is using the coolest bit of code or getting the most out of their HTML this week.”

Believe it or not, now, your fashion and “popular” graphical designs will be predicted and produced by AI.

I think the most pivital concept Ive retained from the research is that, perspective is key. It is often hard to keep a positive outlook on AI, when society highlights “potential” bad points on AI. After all, it is basic psychology that negative things are more memorable than positives.

AI is used for software in classrooms not only with learning models, but with accuracy. AI is not here to replace teachers but to aid them. AI increases engagement, satisfaction, accuracy, and accommodations for disability support.

Above, AI is used to help predict fashion trends and accurately model clothes for material, price, sustainability, and “dupes”.

Here AI is used to mass produce indigenous graphics into animated, clean vectors. This can be used in Museums when producing patterns or graphics. This increases accuracy in cultural design. “AI has been widely used by designers, which is considered to be an important assistant for them [13]. Intelligent algorithms play an increasingly important role in graphic design field such as real-time graphics generation, virtual scene visualization [14], 3D Graphics Engines [15], and so on” (Design and Space Evaluation).

Here AI is used to created art. Yes, image matching the best color set and image, for optimal satisfaction. Optical media interface is commonly used for packaging design, responding to 45.6%; it is used more in the film and television media industry, reaching 68%; 49% of the public are very satisfied with AI visual media communication design(Chunyan,Zhe, She…).

AI is not the bad guy that society paints it as; it’s the artist that wields AI as a tool who chooses to abuse its powers.
