How to achieve the organic integration of the two has become an important direction for business teaching reform. The paper reviews the theoretical foundations for the integration of design thinking and AI tools in business education, proposes a five-stage teaching model incorporating both, and details its practical application scenarios, aiming to provide theoretical guidance and practical insights for business teaching reform.
