Frequently asked questions

In this course, using GenAI in UX design means bringing generative AI into core UX tasks such as research support, persona creation, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing. The focus is on using AI to create useful starting points and reduce repetitive work while keeping human judgment and accountability in place.

You would use it when you need help turning rough inputs into usable drafts for UX work, especially in repetitive or exploratory tasks. The course frames it as a way to generate options, organize information, and move faster into review and refinement.

It fits mainly into the early and middle stages of UX work, when you are gathering insights, shaping ideas, and building design directions to test. In the course, AI supports the workflow rather than replacing research decisions, design refinement, or usability review.

Using GenAI in UX design is different from doing the same work manually because AI can produce drafts and variations from a small amount of input instead of building everything from scratch. In this course, those outputs are treated as material to review and refine, not as final UX decisions.

A basic understanding of UX concepts and workflows is helpful before you start. Familiarity with user research, wireframing, prototyping, usability testing, and common design tools will make the GenAI examples easier to follow.

The course uses conversational generative AI tools together with Figma for wireframing and related UX design work. The main method is prompting, reviewing, and refining AI outputs for tasks like research support, personas, and interface drafts.

You practice generating and refining user personas, turning ideas into wireframes, and using AI to support user research and usability testing work. You also iterate on prompts, evaluate draft outputs, and fit those AI-assisted steps into a broader UX process with human oversight.
