摘要

Fashion and Textiles are very closely related to latest trends and technologies and it is very predictable that these domains will be the most intimately influenced by the Artificial Intelligence (AI) revolution. And design pedagogy related to Fashion and Textiles has to keep up with the advancements happening globally, AI being the most impactful. Though AI has its different forms and applications, we are looking at Generative AI and how design education is being reset by the advent of the Generative AI applications. As humans and machines work closely together, the synergies can result in pathbreaking creativity, in Design as a practice and in the Design Education realm. Taking cues from Blooms Taxonomy and its many digital iterations, this paper looks at how AI can be introduced to the learning and teaching process and what are the impacts and outcomes in Design education. Can the outcomes be assessed for their creativity and effectiveness? Will the interactions deal with cognitive decline or progress in students? The use of AI is not without its drawbacks and we discuss in this paper two class room projects. The first project is taught as an elective and aims to introduce, Future Trends in textiles using AI as one of the tools with particular accent on sustainability to students outside the Textiles and Fashion domain. The second project engaged 3rd year textiles students in a comprehensive study of globally recognized textiles, aiming to visualize these rich cultural designs in contemporary living room and bedroom settings using AI. It advocates for an approach that fosters innovation while preserving the students’ artistic expression and design ethos, exploring the overarching role of technology in Fashion Design and Textiles.
