Savannah College of Art and Design's research unit SCADask has carried out a survey of creative business leaders into opinions on the impact of AI on design. Sixty responded, with 90% predicting that AI would drive significant innovation, pushing the boundaries of what is currently possible.
Meanwhile, 97% are optimistic about the impact of AI on the design profession and and 100% believe AI can improve efficiency and productivity in workflows (see our pick of the best AI image generators).

The survey was conducted ahead of the first two-day SCAD AI Summit at SCAD’s Deloitte Foundry and published afterwards in an AI Insights Report. At the summit itself, a series of roundtable sessions, moderated by Utkarsh Seth, Senior Staff UX Manager for Android at Google, provided a platform for perspectives to steer SCAD through policies and procedures related to AI and its integration into university curriculum and offerings.
