Within the dialogue box: Exploring designer activities and linguistic features in collaboration with textual GenAI 1: School of Design, Hunan University, Changsha, China; 2: School of Design and Creative Arts, Loughborough University, Loughborough, United Kingdom; 3: College of Engineering and Design, Hunan Normal University, Changsha, China Language functions as both a core element and the cognitive framework that supports the entire design process. However, the deep integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) is shifting the creative process from self- or human-to-human dialogue to human-AI conversation, requiring a careful examination of this emerging form of collaborative language. This study conducted an experiment on designer-AI collaboration. The goal was to explore the relationship between their collaborative activities, linguistic features, and co-creativity. By carefully coding activities and using the Linguistic Inquiry and Word Count (LIWC) method, we identified conversational features linked to different levels of creativity. These findings not only enhance understanding of the Human-AI collaborative design language but also offer important warnings and essential regulatory insights for designers engaging in co-creation with Textual GenAI.
