The relationship between Co/Builders and AI is rooted in amplifying human creativity, experimentation, and community-building through thoughtful, adaptive use of technology. Whether it's helping design logos, or testing hypotheses, AI is seen as another "co-builder" in the room — a tireless one who’s always ready to play, iterate, and support the mission of building what’s next.
AI as a Co-Builder
Just like the people who contribute to Co/Builders projects, AI acts as a collaborator — not a replacement. It helps accelerate idea generation, surface patterns, and test possibilities faster. It’s a thinking partner in the sandbox, not the architect of the sandbox.
AI in Service of the Experimental Mindset
Co/Builders champions bold, iterative experimentation. AI tools are used to:
Analyze community feedback Spark creative directions that humans can refine Log, organize, and reflect on experiments in real-time Ethical, Human-Centered Use
Co/Builders doesn't treat AI as a black box. Instead, it encourages transparent, intentional use of AI that reflects its values:
AI is used to enhance human agency, not diminish it.
