Generative AI for Design Thinking equips participants with the skills to combine human-centred innovation methods with generative AI to solve business challenges more creatively and efficiently. Participants will learn how to use AI tools throughout the Design Thinking process—from empathising with users and defining problems to generating ideas, developing prototypes and evaluating solutions.

Through practical exercises and business case studies, learners will use generative AI to analyse user feedback, develop personas, create empathy maps, identify customer pain points and formulate clear problem statements. They will also apply effective prompting techniques to explore diverse ideas, compare potential solutions and uncover new opportunities for products, services and process improvements.

The course introduces AI-assisted rapid prototyping for creating concepts, user journeys, visual mock-ups and presentation materials. Participants will learn to gather feedback, test assumptions and iteratively refine solutions while considering data privacy, bias, accuracy and responsible AI use.

By the end of the course, participants will be able to integrate generative AI into Design Thinking workflows, accelerate innovation and develop user-centred solutions that improve customer experience, team collaboration and business performance.
