AI, User Experience, and Creative Technology

This course explores the next generation of User Experience (UX) design, where interfaces are no longer static but “liquid” and adaptive. Students will learn how to use AI to create personalized, predictive, and accessible user experiences. The curriculum covers “Anticipatory Design,” AI-driven accessibility tools, and the integration of creative technologies (voice, gesture, biosignals) into standard UX workflows.

§ 01 By the end you can
  1. Design "Anticipatory Interfaces" that predict user needs using AI data
  2. Implement AI tools for automated accessibility (e.g., auto-alt text, voice nav)
  3. Map user journeys that integrate AI agents and chatbots seamlessly
  4. Prototype multimodal interactions (Voice, Gesture, Touch)
  5. Evaluate the ethical implications of data collection for personalized UX
