The vast majority of people can’t even describe what they want a designer to make for them, and beyond the first iteration can’t muster any adjectives farther than “more bold” or “it needs to pop”.

I don’t think these people are going to suddenly learn how to express what they want in a way that there’s a real threat to actual highly skilled professional designers.


I agree, but designers/artists using AI may become 10x more productive so fewer people will be needed.


Should Adobe, Corel, SideFx and bunch of other software companies close the doors in the next 6-12m as well? I mean, who needs them, since all the graphic designers are gone. Fuck, they all can go and dig trenches in LA and SF.


Adobe is adding AI to their products which seems like the right move. AI-assisted work requires new tools.
