Judging Generative Systems and the Limitations of AI

This chapter discusses the important skill of being able to judge the options produced by generative systems as a designer, highlighting that current systems require human intervention for judgment. It explores how adversarial networks judge options based on proximity to a prompt, rather than quality or novelty, and emphasizes that humans are still better at recognizing exceptions and atypical examples. The chapter also reflects on the limitations of AI technology, the need for designers to stay updated, and the potential consequences of AI on society and labor markets.
