Design AI: The next stage of AI evolution
SINCE the introduction of the world's very first electronic digital computer in 1946, mankind has been obsessed with the infinite possibilities of what 'artificial intelligence' – as opposed to 'human intelligence' – can achieve. Countless books and movies have been produced in the last eight decades, as fact and fiction meld into one, and the prowess of computers are debated and explored. Movies such as Minority Report and Terminator have achieved cult status, as their writers let imagination run wild, painting a sci-fi future that sometimes bordered on the absurd. Until now. As AI becomes more commonplace, questions that have plagued us since the advent of technology, have become more pertinent. Will AI help mankind solve our biggest challenges, from climate change to food shortages and incurable diseases? Or will they turn on us and become our greatest enemy yet?

'There is no simple answer to this but the path AI will take over the next few years will depend on how humans interact with it, and how they put in place enough safeguards to ensure that AI is developed and used ethically and responsibly,' said Professor Tai Lee Siang, SUTD deputy president and chief innovation and enterprise officer. Prof Tai, who is also chief judge in the inaugural Design AI and Tech Awards, jointly organised by The Business Times and SUTD, describes AI as a partner – one who is capable of exponentially increasing the quality and innovativeness of all solutioning. New frontier for mankind 'Never before has there been a technology with such immense potential. The power of large language models opens up a whole new frontier for mankind. With great power, comes great responsibility and the time is for that is now,' he said. Harnessing this power is why SUTD is making the pivot as the world's first Design AI university. Expectations are growing that AI can help solve many wicked problems. Those who can design innovations from and beyond our imaginations with AI will always be in demand. SUTD calls this Design AI – it is how one will innovate in future; it is also how one will craft the Future of Innovation for economy and society.
