Design bar: Fun with AI! What's happening in the design field?

More and more people are using AI to analyze and generate text, images and video. In the near future, AI is also predicted to help us solve problems at work and give presentations. At the same time, AI is booking and paying for our vacations as personal AI assistants. But what does the development of AI really mean for the field of design?

Listen to the panel's reflections on the state of AI in the design field. Is it a threat to the jobs of graphic designers and illustrators, or is it rather a useful tool to incorporate into your practice? What will these developments mean for the streamlining of production chains, circular design and product development? And last but not least, what are some fun and useful ways to work with AI?

In the panels:

• Tor Lindstrand, Senior Lecturer and Program Director for the Master's Program in Spatial Design, Konstfack
• Björn Nordin, CEO of Svensk Form
• Sandra Nolgren, Head of Operations Swedish Cartoonists

After the panel discussion, we move to a workshop to test what generative AI means

Tonight's workshop:
