Human-AI Co-Creation: Evaluating the Collaborative Potential of Generative AI in Design Thinking
Abstract
Generative AI is emerging as a co-creator in design processes, enabling novel forms of human-machine collaboration in fields such as product design, architecture, and UX/UI. This paper explores the integration of GenAI in design thinking frameworks, assessing how it augments ideation, prototyping, and iteration. Through qualitative case studies and design experiments, we evaluate creative synergy, user experience, and productivity. We propose a Human-AI Collaboration Index (HACI) to measure effectiveness and provide recommendations for optimized workflows.
