THIRD EYE IN EVALUATION PROCESSES OF VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN EDUCATION: AN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MODEL

Artificial intelligence (AI) increases its presence in the field of design, as in almost every area. AI in the design discipline is seen by the changes the designers have brought about in their professional life with the application or software that automate the design process. It is essential to think about the potential of AI in design education and open it up for discussion, based on the question ''Can AI evaluate a design product'' In this study, an artificial intelligence model with CoreML framework was created using supervised learning with a classified data set containing logotypes designed by students of the visual communication design and graphic design department. The model was tested by creating a control group with unclassified logotypes that did not exist in the data set, and explained the result of the experiment. The potential of AI to make aesthetic inferences by learning the design principles and their role in the assessment and evaluation processes in design education is mentioned.
