The Creative Shift: Industry Perspectives | The Human Responsibility in the Age of Intelligent Tools

ECU Continuing Studies presents a series of panel discussions, offering insights into diverse industries and opportunities to connect with leading professionals.

AI is quickly becoming part of how we design, work and live.. For designers and creative leaders, this raises questions about how we use emerging tools responsibly and stay accountable for the systems we help shape.

This installment of The Creative Shift: Industry Perspectives brings together design leaders to unpack what it means to design and lead in an age of intelligent tools. They’ll share how they stay thoughtful in fast-moving environments, setting boundaries, encouraging critical thinking and keeping people at the center of their work.

Explore the excitement and complexity of emerging tools, and how we can stay curious while safeguarding privacy, equity, and integrity. How can designers build awareness, trust and literacy among users and teams, and what does collective responsibility looks like as technology evolves?

Come prepared with your questions for our panelists.
