In today's world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has seamlessly integrated into ourdaily lives without us even realising it. We witness AI-driven innovations allaround us, subtly enhancing our routines and interactions. Ranging from Siri, Alexa, to Google Assistant, voice assistants have become prime examples of AI technology, assisting us with simple tasks and responding to our inquiries. As these once futuristic ideas have now become an indispensable part of our everyday reality, they also become relevant for the field of GUI. This thesis explores the views of stakeholders, such as designers, alumni, students and teachers, on the inevitable implementation of artificial intelligence(AI) into the graphical user interface (GUI) development. It aims to provide understanding on stakeholders thoughts and needs with the focus on two research questions: RQ1: What are the viewpoints of design stakeholders regarding using Artificial Intelligence tools into GUI development? And RQ2: What characteristics should be considered in including AI in GUI development? To collect data, the thesis will use A/B testing and question sessions. In the A/B testing, participants will watch two videos, one showing how to digitise asketch using an AI tool (Uizard) and the other showing how to do the samething using a traditional GUI design tool (Figma). Afterwards, the participants will answer questions about their experience regarding the two different ways to digitise a sketch. The study highlighted a generally positive outlook among the participating stakeholders. Students and alumni expressed more enthusiasm whereas experienced professionals and teachers were cautious yet open to AI integration. Concerns werevoiced regarding potential drawbacks, including limited control and issues of over-reliance. The findings underscored AI's potential to streamline tasks but also emphasised the need for manual intervention and raised questions about maintaining control and creative freedom. We hope this work serves as a valuable starting point for other researchers interested in exploring this topic.
