CEU Session: Design Trends | Rehumanizing space amid the rise of AI (1HSW credit)

Description: This course dives into design trends that are both knowledge-based and human-centered, focusing on how space can respond to the increasing presence of artificial intelligence (Al) in our daily work. By examining historical tech disruptors, participants will understand their lasting impact on design. We will delve into Al’s transformative role in current work activities and explore emerging trends aimed at rehumanizing the workplace in response to increasing automation.
Participants will gain insights and strategies to intentionally apply these trends, creating environments that foster human connection, creativity, and well-being while adapting to technological advancements.
