Introduction
While we continue to discuss the ethics of AI in UX Design, let's create a fully AI-generated UX case study, using Google Gemini to brainstorm and discover research data, and Google Stitch to create high-fidelity UI screens.
What AI-generated design did you create?
The AI-Driven Lifting Coach: A UX Case Study on Personalization, Progress, and Prevention. It's an AI-Powered Fitness Tracking App that curates specialized training programs based off your body composition, workout experience, and fitness goals.
Was generative AI a good designer or assistant?
While I brainstormed the product on my own, AI definitely played the Designer role here. In fact, I made it come up with an entire UX case study because I wanted to see how efficient it was. I was quite shocked by how long and extensive it was. However, in the end, generative AI failed because the UI screens it created lacked any visual design showcasing the "AI-driven" approach to the app. Ultimately, it looks like a generic fitness tracking app.
What accelerated your design process?
I copied and pasted the case study into Google Stitch and asked it to create all of the major screens. While I feel the screens are a bit bland, I am a bit impressed with the grid structure and use of accessible typography in the UI Design and feel that Stitch could be a good tool during a wireframe process.
4. What slowed you down?
The entire case study was counterintuitive because I had to go back and verify every single piece of information it gave me. I definitely don't recommend using AI to generate your case study...
How might you approach your design process differently using tools like these in the future?
I think Google Stitch is a great tool during your ideation phase of a UI design. Sometimes jotting everything down on paper can get tedious and frustrating because there's a certain limit on how much you can visually express with a pencil and paper.
What are the ethical implications of completely outsourcing UX design to AI?
Oh boy, where do I start? First off, case study; probably a ton of misinformation there that could cause issues. Furthermore, the UI design. We all know that with generative AI it takes images from the internet, and it brings up one of the biggest ongoing concerns: copyright. The bottom line is; don't rely on AI to do your work. Use it as a tool to help your process which allows the usage of AI be the most ethical.
