Discussion Tired to read about AI nonsense
Sorry for the rant but I’m tired of all these messages from young people saying they quit freelancing or their graphic design studies because “AI can generate images.” So what?
You think a marketing or brand director is gonna fire their graphic designer and start creating visual campaigns themselves by prompting an AI? Then what, he sends his “ready to print” files (300dpi, with bleeds and all that shite) to the printer, who replies “Sorry, this isn’t even CMYK…”? Or probably the AI will generate the 100 banners in 10 formats the e-commerce team need for their affiliation campaign.
And now developers don’t even need to talk to UI designers anymore. They build faster with AI, so of course, they’ll just prompt the design themselves too.
Wait, never mind. Developers are gone too because AI took their jobs.
So I guess it’s just one CEO now, prompting all day.
Stop the nonsense. Maybe you're just looking for an excuse to give up or be lazy. And for those who are ready to get sh*t done, good for them, less competition.

Yeah, I don‘t understand it either. First of all, you don‘t own the copyrights of ai generated stuff. And AI won‘t give you a continuing coperate design. I think AI is good to give you a general Idead of how something can look, but if you want to have a tidy and unique design, you still need to hire a professional designer!
