Graphic text reads: “New Course: UX Design for AI: Human-AI Collaboration. Learn to design with AI, beyond just using it. As AI reshapes the practice of design, designers need new ways to collaborate with intelligent systems while keeping human needs at the centre. This course explores how to design with AI, design for AI, and apply AI responsibly in real-world design practice. Dive deeper in the Q&A with instructor Alexa Tang. Visit our link in bio to learn more.” Graphic text reads: “This course is built for mid-to-senior working practitioners - UX designers, product managers, and researchers - who are encountering AI in real product work. It assumes you already have UX foundations; it builds on them rather than teaching UX from scratch. OCAD U's Introduction or Intermediate UX courses are a natural foundation”
