To quickly apply AIGC tools in the product design process, the most direct method is to let yourself be 'lazy.' Here, laziness does not mean being lazy in thinking, but rather letting AI do everything it can for you. Similarly, letting AI complete tasks that are impossible with human effort alone can play a significant role in the design process. In the past, designers often couldn't bring their brilliant ideas to fruition due to time constraints or other work limitations. This is my biggest takeaway from using AI tools during this course.

While considering the product combination, integrating sustainability as an additional attribute into the product is an interesting attempt. The gap between conceptualization and realization of the product's design is a crucial aspect to consider.
Finding a balance between the practical functionality and the conceptual design of the VR glasses is a new challenge for me.

两幅不同的VR眼镜,在机场和登记后解决用户的不同需求 ,我迫不及待想过上这种不停换眼镜的快乐生活哈哈。
信息传递伴一直随着人类进步发展,我们从努力获取信息到信息过载,仿佛弹指一挥间,而将适量信息,在高伴随性的状态先传递给用户,这已经成为许多设计师未来数年的工作了。
这个课程中,不论是AI重力辅助,还是当年的计算机辅助工作流,我们都能看到很好的结果。不过基于我的个人观察,显然AI在前期的赋能更加明显,而后期还是需要我们精准的控制才能做好一个产品。所以善用技术,也要明确人类的核心价值。
希望在未来的数年后,当我走进机场,就能开始体验上已经普及的可穿戴智能助理的服务。相信那时,我会扬起嘴角,并用智能助理给你俩发一个消息的:
“Hi guys, 最近还好吗?”
