Creativity from Friction: Human-AI Interaction for Exploratory Structural Design
arXiv:2607. 07521v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI agents that generate final answers based on user input often do not meet the needs of creative fields.
AI agents that generate final answers based on user input often do not meet the needs of creative fields. Fields such as structural design and architecture need interactive systems that help users externalise and develop ideas, explore alternatives, and refine partial solutions.

Generative AI tools for creative work tend to be designed around the goal of removing friction, on the assumption that smoother iteration and faster output translate into more value for the designer. We argue, however, that this framing leaves out something important about how design ideation works, namely reflection-in-action.

arXiv:2603. 13312v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Interior design is a requirements-to-visual-plan generation process that must simultaneously satisfy verifiable spatial feasibility and comparative aesthetic preferences.
arXiv:2607. 23126v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The rapid adoption of generative AI tools has created new literacy demands for designers who must verbalize tacit knowledge through natural language prompts.

arXiv:2606. 09848v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As generative and agentic AI becomes embedded in everyday products, practitioners face a persistent challenge: how to design human-AI coordination -- the ongoing mutual adjustment between users and AI systems as mediate through interfaces-that supports usability, trust, and safety.

arXiv:2607. 00527v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generative AI now enables games to produce dialogue, quests, characters, images, and worlds at runtime.
arXiv:2606. 26299v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While generative AI has achieved remarkable success in solving problems with verifiable solutions, generating physical art that satisfies both strict geometric constraints and subjective visual aesthetics remains a challenge.
arXiv:2606. 13196v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent AI systems can generate texts, software architectures, hypotheses, designs, and scientific workflows that appear creative.
