Project Brief
AI has become the buzzword today, and that has led to many of us thinking that AI can replace humans. In the training industry, AI can bring many benefits, such as speed and efficiency. It can even create a training base for you. Do you think it can completely replace humans or the value an instructional designer brings to the training?
AI can definitely make the lives of instructional designers easy, but it cannot replace them; and if you still replace your training design team with AI, the impact of your training is bound to go down. By definition, “Design thinking is a problem-solving approach that focuses on understanding users’ needs and creating innovative solutions. It involves five key steps: empathize, define, ideate, prototype, and test. By putting the user at the centre of the process, design thinking helps teams come up with creative ideas that truly meet people’s needs.” The first step in the Design process is to empathize. And remember AI cannot empathize. So, when designing training programs for humans, a human (Instructional Designer) is a must to empathize and understand the user’s true needs.
Here are some examples of how things can change when ID is in charge of creating training with AI.
