Creativity and A.I. 특화 과정

Artificial Creativity is about exploring the emerging field of artificial intelligence (A.I.) from a design perspective with the intent to bring those with a programming background and more “traditional” creatives together. In this course, you will look back at the history and theories behind today's A.I., analyze the unorthodox approaches that have advanced the field, utilize current A.I. tools, and practice design thinking methodologies that can be applied to everyday business decision making. You will examine the potential of creative A.I. in everyday experience. You will implement various design research methodologies through observation, reflective writing and discussion prompts. Then, you will actively engage and collaborate with others in the class while challenging your own definitions of creativity by taking a closer look at the people and projects that have changed the paradigm of what machines can do. Throughout the course, you will step away from your computer and complete a project applying the techniques and theories you’ll have just learned.

The modules in this course are more reflective and self-directed than other online learning experiences that you may have had in the past, and you are encouraged to stretch beyond your comfort level as you work through the the modules.

Natural Creativity is about looking into the many theories behind creativity, examining studies, and exploring the latest machine learning techniques. You will experiment with artistic tools that are powered by the latest machine learning techniques and conduct a full iteration of design thinking research that can be applied in several different business scenarios. You’ll focus on how the concept of creativity has evolved over time and how it has been investigated. Then, you will actively engage and collaborate with others in the class through discussion prompts and have an opportunity to reflectively write about a project that inspires your creativity. Throughout the course, you will step away from your computer, plan, and conduct one iteration of a design project applying the techniques and theories you just learned, enabling you to gain deep insights on how people are creative in your own local environment.
