AI and Human Collaboration in Creativity
📌 AI tools like Vibe Coded in Gemini are amazing for initial ideation and prototyping, but they currently lack true problem-solving ability, as demonstrated by the Rubik's Cube solver that only reversed its scrambling steps.
👩‍💻 Complementary skills between humans and AI are crucial; AI is fast at prototyping, while humans are necessary for testing and preventing conceptual errors or "broken" outputs.
🧠 Creative output relies on identifying and utilizing abstract design patterns (schemas), which can be accelerated by using AI to mock up combinations based on underlying shape integration, rather than surface-level merging.

Schema Discovery and Application Workflow
⚙️ Discovering abstract design patterns involves a workflow: 1) Cluster examples (AI is good at this), 2) Dig into one cluster, 3) AI guesses an initial schema (attributes), 4) Generate and test outputs based on the schema, and 5) Iteratively refine the schema based on comparisons with other examples.
📈 This schema-based workflow, involving human-in-the-loop hypothesis testing, makes users 10 times better at creative tasks; for example, improving abstract generation from one concept in 10 minutes to cranking them out rapidly.
🖥️ The developed system, Schmaps, can codify structures (like HCI paper abstracts or commercial ad formats) into explicit schemas, which then enables AI agents to generate content that adheres to those identified constraints.

AI Control and Trust Mechanisms
🛠️ Logo Motion demonstrates AI creating semantic animations (e.g., things that should fly, fly) by interpreting assets and writing code (HTML/JavaScript), while offering editorial control via widgets like timelines, layers, and version history.
🎯 A key feature in maintaining control is self-debugging capabilities, where AI tracks element positions, isolates errors (like an object being 50 pixels too low), and fixes only the necessary code segment precisely.
📜 Building trust in proactive AI (like automated email scheduling via Double Agents) relies on authoring and testing explicit user-authored policies and having transparent control via visual widgets representing the system state.

Key Points & Insights
➡️ Do not blindly trust AI: Initial AI examples often rely on assumptions or superficial reversal, meaning human oversight is essential for meaningful solutions (e.g., the Rubik's Cube example).
➡️ Leverage schemas for acceleration: By identifying the underlying abstract design patterns in creative fields, human experts can dramatically speed up knowledge transfer and application using AI tools to execute the pattern recognition process in months instead of years.
➡️ Interaction builds trust: Participation in creating the schema or policies fosters shared representation between the user and AI, leading to greater willingness to accept autonomous actions over time (exposure therapy effect).
