The algorithm is applied on the premise that the image generated by AI can be recognized and used smoothly by the user. Other assets are not exposed to the user or discarded because they are unnecessary or unfamiliar. This study aims to expand the scope of the utility of the image generated by AI, which is used as a high-level tool in the design field. To this end, we first examined human information processing and reflection in AI by the cognitive paradigm by examining previous studies and cases, and discussed the value of expansion by focusing on creativity and bottom-up processing of AI's self-organization. Considering the human recogmition process that instinctively grasps an object, the following AI usability was proposed. It is to utilize AI as a high-level tool applied appropriately to human perception, or to utilize the derivative itself by bottom-up self-organization. In addition, it is to set the algorithm to the minimum intervention so that basic elements such as shape, color, size, texture, and movement are composed of figure-ground according to the human perception process that instinctively grasps an object, and to utilize the results. Limiting the use of AI to a tool suitable for human perception and information processing or production by designers or general users is to operate only a part of the convenience and usability of AI. The image creation through AI's self-organization, as seen from the cognitive paradigm, is a step toward opening a new era of design where technical aesthetics meets devices, just as design has been constantly developing in pursuit of novelty and differentiation due to its nature.

This study explores the integration of the generative AI, specifically ChatGPT (GPT-4o), into the field of structural analysis and design using the finite element method (FEM). The research is conducted in two main parts: structural analysis and structural design. For structural analysis, two scenarios are examined: one where the FEM source code is provided to ChatGPT and one where it is not. The AI's ability to understand, process, and accurately perform finite element analysis in both scenarios is evaluated. Additionally, the application of ChatGPT in structural design is investigated, including design modifications and parameter sensitivity analysis. The results demonstrate the potential of the generative AI to assist in complex engineering tasks, suggesting a future where AI significantly enhances efficiency and innovation in structural engineering. However, the study also highlights the importance of ensuring the accuracy and reliability of AI-generated results, particularly in safety-critical applications.

With the rapid development of AI technology, ChatGPT and other AI content creation tools are becoming common, and users are becoming curious and adopting them. These tools, unlike search engines, generate results based on user prompts, which puts them at risk of inaccuracy or plagiarism. This allows unethical users to create inappropriate content and poses greater educational and corporate data security concerns. AI content detection is needed and AI-generated text needs to be identified to address misinformation and trust issues. Along with the positive use of AI tools, monitoring and regulation of their ethical use is essential. When detecting content created by AI with an AI content detection tool, it can be used efficiently by using the appropriate tool depending on the usage environment and purpose. In this paper, we collect data on AI content detection tools and compare and analyze the functions and characteristics of AI content detection tools to help meet these needs.

The purpose of this study is to explore the positive application direction of this technology by investigating the perception and use of teenage adolescents about the recently emerged AI profile. The development of AI technology has brought about changes in various industries, and the AI profile service, which started in 2023, has gained great popularity as it is widely used as an SNS profile or personal blog image. However, it has recently become a social controversy as it is used for identification purposes such as social ID cards. However, as a result of a survey of adolescents, they did not use AI profiles for the purpose of issuing ID cards. Satisfaction with the AI profile service was high, but there were also complaints about its unnaturalness and limited style. And female students showed higher awareness and experience in using AI profiles than male students. This study can be used as a reference for developing AI profiles and establishing marketing strategies, and preparing national policies related to AI profiles.

Generative AI systems are expected to be more widely utilized. However, relatively little attention has been paid to understanding how users perceive and accept generative AI results. To identify strategies for increasing the future use of generative AI and prepare for potential issues, we organized design workshop for the general user group and the designer group. They created artwork utilizing Novel AI and semi-structured interview was followed to evaluate their attitudes toward generative AI and its copyright. Results indicate that the general public views generative AI positively, while the design-related group views it quite negatively. The participants expressed concerns as to the misuse the system, specifically related to copyright issues. People who are likely to utilize generative AI outcomes have insisted more strongly that copyrights should be their own. Those working in the design field highly evaluated the possibility of using generative AI in their work. Copyright perceptions were not significantly influenced by users' satisfaction or their level of involvement in the creation process. We discuss design implications for interfaces using generative AI based on the findings.

AI technology is spreading not only to industrial fields, but also to culture, art, and content fields. In this paper, we proposed a system based on AI technology that can automate the process of reproducing contents using characters for movie contents. After creating the basic appearance of the character by using the StyleGAN2 model from the video extracted from the movie contents, analyzing the character's personality and propensity using the extracted dialogue data, it was determined from the contemplative appearance based on the yin-yang and five elements to the character's propensity. Accordingly, the external characteristics are reflected in the character. Using the OpenPose model, a character's motion is created, and the finally generated data is integrated to reproduce the content. It is expected that many movie contents can be reproduced through the study of the proposed system.
