The work aims to explore the evolution of aesthetic consciousness under the influence of new technologies such as artificial intelligence, as well as the guiding transformation of aesthetic consciousness to the methods, strategies and forms of expression of artificial intelligence and innovative design, the speculation of design methods and design judgments under the guidance of aesthetic consciousness, and the re-examination of sustainable development goals. The comparative study, literature investigation, case analysis, cognition computing, social computing, culture computing and AI algorithm were adopted. Eight aesthetic consciousness "unity, image, life, field, medium, simplicity, emptiness and balance" were proposed with China as an example to analyze the innovation mechanism and design method of aesthetic consciousness affecting agents in the age of artificial intelligence. The three aspects of aesthetic consciousness of innovative design, namely "evaluation", "appreciation" and "creation", form an interactive influence on artificial intelligence and innovative design in six dimensions of perception, feeling, taste, ideal, standard and innovation, including six aspects of perceptual cognitive calculation, experience, sensory and qualitative coordination, three-body discrimination and appreciation, physical and mental intelligence, universal significance, and sustainable symbiosis of time and space. |
