Frequently asked questions
In this course, AI-assisted prototyping means using generative AI tools to turn early ideas into workable outlines and prototype drafts. The emphasis is on creating and refining functional prototypes through prompting, iteration, and workflow integration.
You would use it when you need to move from an idea to an early prototype quickly and want help generating structure, content, or visuals. It is especially useful during exploration, when you are comparing directions, shaping user-facing ideas, or building a first draft to review.
It sits in the build-and-refine stage of the design process, after an initial concept is defined and before full development or final production. In this course, it connects outlining, visual drafting, feedback, and revision into a more continuous prototyping workflow.
