The “AIGC Heat” is one of the most significant features of the current digital intelligence era, and this technological boom has had a significant impact on the teaching of printing art design and related industries. Professional teaching is undergoing profound changes, so teachers must objectively study the changes and the development of professional teaching in this context. By reviewing the historical background and developmental characteristics of the “AIGC Heat”, this paper explores and reflects on the transformation of printing art and design teaching in the digital intelligence era from the multidimensional perspectives of logical coupling, technological intersection, and technological ethical boundaries. It is found that the “AIGC Heat” has brought impacts and opportunities to the teaching and innovation of printing art design, which not only endows professional teaching innovation with driving force, but also poses challenges to the top-level design of professional teaching, teachers’ quality, and the essence of education. Professional teaching needs to keep pace with the times and constantly update teaching concepts and methods to adapt to the rapid development of technology.
