Abstract:
The ever-evolving field of User Interface & User Experience UI/UX design prioritizes creating user-friendly interfaces. Traditionally, this has been a human-centred process. However, Artificial Intelligence AI offers new possibilities for automating design tasks and leveraging data for user insights. This research paper delves into the potential impact of AI on UI/UX design.
The core question is whether AI tools can effectively replace human designers in crafting user experiences. Alternatively, can AI work alongside designers to enhance their capabilities? This paper explores these questions through a review of existing research and proposes a research methodology to further investigate the topic.
The literature review analyses how AI can be used for tasks like user behaviour analysis, A/B testing, and prototype generation. However, it also acknowledges AI's limitations in understanding user emotions, implementing creative solutions, and adapting to unforeseen user needs.
The suggested research methodology will give a combined approach, making a review of existing literature with interviews from UI/UX professionals and a case study analyzing a design project utilising AI tools. By investigating the strengths and limitations of AI in design tasks, how AI can be integrated into the workflow, and the ethical considerations surrounding AI-driven design decisions, this research helps to provide a better understanding of the relationship between AI and human designers in the UI/UX field. The findings can inform design education, industry practices, and the development of future AI tools specifically tailored for UI/UX design applications.
