I hope you enjoyed the video! If you did, then here's another video of me designing a brand identity in 5 hours! ruclips.net/video/TuALprEtwEU/видео.html
Logo design has always been a big part of the design services I offer. Just the past month I have had three small business clients send me logo examples that "they did themselves" using MidJourney and wanted me to just "fix" their choices. With one of those clients, I initially offered them a couple fairly refined designs up front as a starting point and they came back with 20 MidJourney examples they liked better. I don't see any way to compete as this takes hold (and shortly they will probably offer AI generated vector logo sets of choices!). While A.I. has been helping me as a designer in the short term, the writing is on the wall as far as the bulk of logo design.
i used upwork to get logo but believe me i generate logo on Gpt now a days and it perfect. Many of my customers who create logo themself and sending me to put in website.
Everyone here seems really optimistic about AI not taking over design jobs, mostly because of things that AI can't do right now, forgetting how quickly AI can be improved and learn to do what it couldn't do before. I believe that, eventually, AI will be able to do ANYTHING, and it will get easier and easier for us to tell it what to do and get the exact results we want. It may not get there in the next 5-10 years, but you can be damn sure it will happen eventually.
@@InsanityShorts_TV plus most developed ai art these days dont have 'glitchy hands' anymore, they still look uncanny af but just give it another year and i bet we couldn't even tell it's ai art. The future is looking pretty bleak tbh.
I give it 5 years and everything will be ai… architects, digital art, logo makers will be all gone from the business. Millions of companies will use it instead of paying humans. Time is money and higher up the corps all people care about is money.
1 year later, AI now can even generate videos that looks really realistic. You can make video just from a simple prompt. Idk what will happened next, but I really worried about my future as a graphic designer
Game AI programmer here, with some background in ML technic. I use to say the same thing about AI doing the same thing as the human does to generate new art, but a writer with a law degree made me change my mind about the whole thing, and made me switch my stance to 'yes it is indeed theft'. The main argument is that it is a machine and not a human who is doing the analysis, and the machine is own by a company who is making profit out of it. The only intellectual property these company are entitled to is the source code of the AI, but that code is useless unless it can analyze thousands of different images, all of which is own by different artist. Effectively, the AI only work with the intellectual property of people who do not work for that company. Now does that solve the issue in the long run ? Not really, because these company can still hire artist to feed the machine data and then we come back to the same thing as today. But essentially, what midjourney and OpenAI is doing is theft right now. ChatGPT work because of the hundreds of article it analyze from the internet, none of it written by people who work directly for OpenAI. Their algorithm is useless without it, and they make profit out of other people hard work. Same thing can be said about midjourney.
Good comment! Although, (playing devils advocate here) wouldn't you point mean that any ideas coming from AI would be theft? Humans working for large companies combine ideas and we don't call that theft. We don't say that D&D stole LOTR for example. It's an interesting topic and I love discussions around this. Looking forward to your response :)
As someone who has studied graphic arts and worked for years in the game industry. It's going to suck, I've worked for apple arcade android and Netflix. They all started to use ai. I've lost my job cuz of it some months ago.
A "LOT" of college courses are already futile, a sad thing to say. I have a degree in illustration which seems ridiculous to me now. I still do illustration now n again, but it isn't my main job and never will be. :(
I've been designing books for 20 years, if AI can design a book to a high standard then I have a problem. But it doesn't end there. Adobe will have a massive problem because who will need Adobe Creative Suite when/if AI can do everything in Creative Suite. I imagine that's why, when announcing Firefly, Adobe emphasised AI won't replace the designer and they'll steer their company in that direction. The next few years will be interesting. Thanks for an interesting watch!
Yes and not just graphic design all creative industries. The people who hire creatives don’t give a toss about being creative they only care about money and if they can save a few dollars using ai instead of hiring you, you damn well know they will. Chatgpt and midjourney are already putting people out of work and it’s only going to get worse
I think graphic design will still exist as a job for awhile, but only for really big brands. And one designer will do the work of multiple existing titles today. So a "graphic designer" will be a 3D modeler, web designer, logo designer, etc all at once with the help of AI
As far as i could remeber i always wanted to be a designer. I tried a lot of jobs but only design was something to give me motivation to grown and live a life. Now almost 30 percent of designers are replaced. What a truly wonderful purpose of AI, to take jobs from people and ruin their lives
I just saw a documentary film with an expert in the field of AI. And he said that the knowledge with which AI makes itself smarter is happening very fast and will go even faster the more years will pass.Within 10 to 20 years, he predicts that AI will be up to 100,000 times smarter than the average human. I have to work at least 30 more years until I can go on retirement. So yes, I fear for my job as a graphic designer!
My gripe with AI is the number of people using it to call themselves 'artists' or 'designers' or 'writers' because theyve been told they can make X amount of money by putting a few words into a prompt box. Easy. They dont have to be creative, or put in the time or training to know what they're doing. No consistency or professionalism. Just look at the cases of AI producing 'art' with the original artist's signature or copyright still on it! Unfortunately i think the trend is here to stay but i hope more regulation comes in so the real creatives dont have to jump through so many hoops to be seen or stop their work from being stolen.
I think a bit part of the missing debate is commodification. Perhaps an AI uses a similar process to create art as a human does, but there is no human labour involved - a non-artist profits financially from knowledge production that they have not contributed to or put effort into
I work as a graphic designer for a company and the photoshop AI tool is used on a daily basis by all of us designers, for removing unwanted objects from images in second s
As an illustrator I am busier than ever. AI can come up with some pretty interesting and amazing visuals, but if you have something specific in mind then you have to really work hard to communicate to it exactly what you want. It lacks the experience that a human illustrator has. That said, it can be useful when you are looking for some ideas, or if you just want it to generate some reference images or some color palate, composition, textures, thumbnail ideas, etc. I have even been able to coax it, after hours of prompting, to generate some pretty good foundations which I can then use as a basis to paint on top of. It's sort of like working with an intern. They bring some of their own ideas to the table, but at the end of the day their job is to work with you to help you create your own unique vision.
@@DandyPants-nw2cu It's always been a very tough industry to break into. It's taken me years to build my portfolio and make the contacts, learn the business, and get my name out there. I've been at it for decades now. At this point, certain authors ask their publishers to have me illustrate their books by name, because they like my work. At the same time, certain publishers have me on regular rotation because I'm easy to work with and they know that they can expect a certain quality of work from me. It just takes a ton of work and a lot of time, and yes a certain amount of luck, to get to where you can make a living at it.
I think AI will eventually replace most design/artistic jobs based on how fast its improving unless higher ups decide to make laws against the use of AI work which these laws would obv be limited to the countries that adopt it but I dont see any other way AI wont replace art jobs unless some type of intervention like this occurs.
clients are already saying.... "that's so expensive isn't it cheaper using AI"... the future is grim for creatives and people that do data entry.... and no it's not going to create "other jobs".... why because AI will build the solution as soon as it recognizes each problem it creates.... and the Prompts will become easier than ever you'll be using natural language soon and AI will know better than you what you want....
Honestly for me the main problem is the capitalism, its an amazing tool that could be used to enhance and make our lives easier, but in reality it will be used by big companies to replace artists and not pay them, i dont care if ai use a similar way of 'creating' than human artists, we need to work to survive and they are trying to take it from us, thats why its so important to regulate It as soon as possible
AI has been around a lot longer than many realize but recently has grown geometrically. The reason AI is not being regulated is because the large greedy corporations are making sure our politicians pay no attention to the issue.
There will always be a gap between those who are trained in design and those whose are not. Therefore AI will not replace designers as an average user will not have the knowledge to use AI to create what is considered as a good design, its like canva, there will always be limitations as to how far the non designer user can go. For example, commercially can someone claim the copyright to a design that they only gave a prompt for and did not literally make it themselves, i don’t think so. 😅
Yeah, I figured I wasn't giving enough information about why thoughts. So hopefully as many people can find this video helpful in understanding my thoughts on this! The teleprompter is a wonderful thing ha
Its killing it the same way HDR killed photography for a few years where every amateur thought they had to use it turned up to 11. Once the novelty wears off and people get sick of all the similar midjourney images, real design and skill will still be left. Anyone can type an idea into AI but you still need skill to do anything useful with it, or god forbid actually "edit" it.
In think the harm of AI is that customers use it as a cheap and okayish alternative to human designers. The quality of creative work is devalued when mediocre becomes the new good. But we get a lot of great tools in all fields. As you said, AI is just part of the development.
I am a 3D artist and have been for 15 years and I don't feel remotely threatened by the rise of AI tools. At the end of the day, AI can and never will replace the human creative mind. We all know whether the art from is 2D or 3D, it cannot be randomnly generated. There are nuances (and painful clients) AI will never be able to manage/appease. Don't worry. Look at AI as a cool tool, not a replacement of artists.
Years ago we were told ai can’t be creative yet here we are. Today ai is the worst it will ever be tomorrow it will be better than it was today. You are right that it can’t replace human creative minds but the people who hire you oh they don’t care about that they only care about how much money they can save. People are already losing their jobs because of chatgpt and midjourney and eventually it will replace you
I agree with you on that. But does your boss? Will big wigs be able to tell the difference and actually have sense, or will they just cut costs as much as possible. If we are goin off of history, the answer is obvious.
The fact that Hollywierd is already firing writers and they are being replaced with ChatGPT should worry us. I'm following AI for about 3 years now and every year it's advancing exponentially faster
@@thejomah Its not that simple though. Anyone in the industry "doing" this creative work knows, it cannot be automated. Sure, certain very simple tasks can be, but most things cannot. As an artist, I have complete autonomy on what I create, and yet STILL I sometimes find it near on impossible to translate exactly what a client wants (mostly because they like to change their minds). AI cannot predict the inconsistencies of the client, the brief changing. For me its too broad an assumption to just think AI can one day simply "take over". For me, it can't. You will never automate human creativity and thought, and true understanding of a brief. Consider how intricate and particular some of these briefs/tasks are, how bespoke they can be. AI cannot be so precise.
Thank you so much @Will Paterson. I have recently started learning graphic designing and your videos help me so very much. I am a newbie but a great mentor/guru like you is really an asset in many ways. So thank you once again. Just keep up the good word and stay blessed always.
I think it will be hard for ai to replace graphic designers because for almost every logo there is some emotional aspects in it that an ai won’t be able to induce. Just my opinion.
I do agree about the emotional aspect, but the reality is that not a lot of people care about what we as creatives value, most startups and companies wanna get things done as fast and cheap as they can, I can see AI making it more difficult for freelancers and designers to get jobs
@osk2689 That's right! Only large corporations/companies understand the value of a custom logo, when considering their brand strategy and marketing objectives. Your average start up only wants a logo, so they can get to doing business. They don't care about brand identity. Therefore, they would be satisfied with clip art. Lol
As humans we weirdly pat ourselves on the back with being creative and believe that's something that cannot be replicated. But like you've said, creativity is just the combination of multiple ideas and generating something "unique" from the inspiration. Unfortunately ai can take inspiration from thousands of examples in a few seconds and do exactly that. At the moment it's clunky and doesn't really get it right, but it's only a matter of time before it does.
I disagre as Ai just mash things togther. As the definition of creative is the use of imagination or original ideas to create something; inventiveness. The Ai dosent Invent you do, you tell the Ai what to do, you are the pilot. So learn to fly the plane cause it will not drive itself. What do you think would happen if your boss used Ai? He probably would make shit art, cause his job is not creative. The I Think you fear is little Timmy in his moms House working his ass of to learn Ai and likes art. If you dont learn to use Ai as a tool Timmy will replace you. But its not like this is new, this happend before with Photo bahshing. But you also have to remeber some of the best art was made with constrains, just look at South park. Simple cardboard figures, that everyone could make. But why did it became popular, Well cause the simple stopmotion animation work great with the humor. I have a hard time seeing Ai making something like Southpark.
Just try to avoid all of those samey anime filters if you can, it can't do or doesn't do often more handdrawn or wholesome art, don't have big fake glossy colors try to differentiate yourself if you aren't Sorry just thinking of some things to help.
And this is why I tell everyone not to get comfortable because you will become irrelevant. Try new things and accept change. Because that change is inevitable
lol its not like that, we have the right to fight for our rights, we cant just let this shit run over artists, machines dont need to work to survive, they dont need jobs, we do. But of course big companies will prefer cheap souless art/design than give job to ppl
I think about that a lot. And also that AI can't use an emotional experience to inform a choice. But it feels like a lot of people don't understand this? Like business owners?
@@andreakhaid It might take a while but at some point, people will yearn for human made stuff...there might a crazy renaissance of it cause people will sense that something is missing in AI creations...its almost spiritual. They might see it after they lost it.
The problem with comparing human creativity with ai process (whether you think they're the same or not), is the scale, the argument fails when you realise that is not a single person using your work as a reference and one day that person might become competition, it is a billion dollar company. I also find it curious how those who have this optmistic view of ai say it is the tool that will do the heavy lifiting while we humans are free to do what we "love" but all I see is ai drawing, singing and writing while the heavy labour remains untouched =/
My team and ALL of my clients have let their graphic design DEPARTMENT go. Less than a 4th of our budget goes to freelancers who are bidding for the lowest dollar. I do not say this as doom and gloom. I say this as delivering the reality that no youtuber would ever say on a video (yet). It is time to specialize in something different.
In my office I was in charge of graphic design, but just a few months ago, some coworkers learn to use Canva. I use to make my designs on vectors manipulating every node to get the shape I want, I take the pictures I use on my designs, but now any guy with enough knowledge just to pick and drop elements on a computer will make the same job I do, and with thousands of templates to choose, even will do better designs that my designs. My boss was like: "Hey, now you´re not the only one that knows how to design".
Designer here, AI is not an enemy - it’s a tool. You creativity is what makes an AI produced design stand out. Machine can only do that much. We shouldn’t be afraid of change, but adapt and make it work for us, instead of fighting everything everywhere. Ps: Though i am strongly against AI platforms using copyrighted works to fuel their databases…
Senior roles will not be replaced, junior roles will disappear. now the problem would be there would be NO juniors left to replace the seniors when they retire, which might come back to bite us in the ass. When all the new graphics that come out will all look like the same slop, we'd start to probably think this was a bad idea. like how mass produced flimsy nonsense started replacing the hardcrafted and sturdy appliances of the past, we'd start to wonder maybe we made a mistake somewhere.
Yes, Ai won't replace the artist but it will replace the job of an artist with a prompt specialist. Take it or Leave it! I've always wanted to learn art and hopefully make a career out if it. But with the rise of Ai, I might just take art as an hobby. A large percent of humans care about only results regardless of the process used to achieve it. This is onr reason why i believe companies will replace the human with a machine to get the job done faster
There is no objective measure of what 'good' design is- as a painter I have been outcompeted by people who I would regard as 'visually illiterate' in terms of their grasp of even basic aesthetic values, let alone good design principles- but people still purchased their work- why? Because it was hanging in a gallery and the owner told them it was art- and that was enough. Consider the following scenario- I knew of an art gallery that sold works for thousands ( not mine, sadly) and this gallary happened to be quite near to a site where each saterday morning people would park up their cars and sell their household junk for giveaway prices ( In the UK we call these events 'boot fairs'.) It occurred to me one day that if I took one of those expensive paintings from that gallery , walked a short way to that site and offered that same painting for sale, it's price would have dropped by 99%- even the kind of people who would be happy to buy that painting in the gallery for full price would not be willing to pay even a reasonable fraction of that price if it were offerd for sale in the boot fair. The painting had not changed- only the context in which it stood. That's when I realised that I was not selling Art, I was selling a mythology- the idea of art. The value of a given instance of art or design is largely determined by the cultural myths surrounding it's creation and sale. Basically there are two competing mythologies in play here- the first is the mystique of the trained human professional designer, the second the mystique of 'artificial intelligence' the shiney new kid on the block of graphic design- the fate of human designers will largely rest upon which one of these mythologies proves the most appealing to the market. The real danger that AI poses to all sorts of professionalls is not that it will do their jobs better or even that it will undercut their prices- its that the Mythology of 'AI' will prove so appealing and compelling to their clients that those clients may well accept linferior products or services because they feel that using this quasi magical 'artificial intelligence' is what they should be doing in order to be correctly aligned with the mood of the times- they may even be afraid not to use AI because this may make them look fearful and overcautious in their approach to innovation. Narrative is the driver of almost all human behaviors, and I fear that as mere humans our narrative may not be sufficiantly compelling to hold the line against the new generation of AI powered storytellers- the very opacity of AI's internal workings and the essential mystery of how it comes to do the things it does should be a weakness, a point of attack that we humans might levearge in our upcoming battle- but in terms of narrative what could be more appealing than a magical black box that both does your bidding but also adds in surprises of it's own creation?
I completely agree that AI isn't unethical in using original work for a model, which is identical in many ways to the way we, as human designers, gain inspiration from others work. It's in HOW you use it, not just that it's being used, that makes it unethical.
We do it but it takes years to get good at it and we can't flood the market with lazy ideas that way. It takes days to produce the work of many years not and make the hard work of others invisible.
AI will transform the industry, just as the introduction of the Mac and Adobe did in the mid 80s, when it displaced pasteup artists... Suddenly skills like ruling with a Rapidograph, cutting rubylith, and making photostats were obsolete. The hi-end design jobs will still be fine, but the lower level designer jobs who work for small companies were cost is always the main concern will be the ones who will be most effected, as AI will be faster and cheaper for a lot of "Boiler Plate" type projects.
I disagree. I can see the positives side of AI to help designers make their workflow easier, but as soon as AI get more mainstream it would make it more difficult for design to get jobs
Will, I plan to major in graphic design for uni next year, and every uni website I look at has a degree that leads to graphic design under a different name- fine arts, studio arts, design, and so on- could you help and explain what I should be looking for when trying to find a degree that can put me on the graphic design career path?

To compare AI with humans and saying anything along the lines of "it's taking inspiration from other artists like humans do" still doesn't justify AI making similar artwork and images to those posted on the Internet and are copyrighted. It's simply because a human mind will know the ethics- that they have to change something in their final product to not infringe the copyright of the image they took inspiration from but who's going to teach AI the same ethics?
I have a question: which creative fields within the graphic and visual design realm or similar will remain AI proof? 3D and video/animation? Or will it compensate to be a jack of all trades also versed in prompting? Or should we focus on marketing and business instead? I feel we should adapt and start thinking right now about strategies for full proofing our careers. Which is hard if we have in mind that all white collar jobs are in danger.
It might kill behance and other websites that are used to share proyects as this are mined for AI sampling. Other than that. Smart AI will be just as likely to land a bettet prrsentation as a skilled artist
On its own? No. In combination with the growing number of bad companies, bosses, managers etc who want quick and cheap, don't respect the designer and will happily exploit them becuse it's such a saturated market of people willing to do anything to make it? Certainly since covid - in my experience where I am in the UK and in my particular sector - I've noticed a growing trend in the number of such poor / cheap types. Then yeah, it could be a problem.
AI isn't sentient and Human sentience is what i think makes creativity authentic. Human graphic design will be better because of such sentience. A human can understand someone's desire for a specific design whereas AI can't. AI doesn't understand when someone creates "The feel of" or "The vibe of" something whereas humans know what that means.
@@willpatersondesign till where ??? Everyone wants to push the boundaries. In some cases we shouldn't do that. It's greedy driven. Dangerous than atombomb
@@willpatersondesign There won't be global regulation. China will not GAF. Russia will not GAF. Nor will countries that sympathize with those countries
as long as were in a capitalist system, ai will be used to replace humans as much as possible, the same way automation is used to replace humans wherever possible, because profit is the goal. no industry or species is safe from capitalism
I had this discussion yeasterday with someone in the field and he told me its just basically going on the upper octave. that doesnt necessarilly change anything. He told me, even nowaydays, everyone can make their graphics using programs, but still, the local vegetables fair (per say) has flyers which suck. The ones who make images their work will basically always be more competent than the rest. Once everyone will have their own ai images, they' re just gonna set a new plateau of mediocrity in which there will always be peaks of professionals
Any updates on this? Firefly v2 and Midjourney v6 have been now out for a some time and they can produce pretty nice photographic images or graphic art, but when you actually want to get some design work done in a professional manner, with high resolution output and no mistakes in them, they still suck really bad, make ton of mistakes and thus can only be considered as assistive tools in the overall design workflow.
@@willpatersondesign Maybe you (or someone) should do regular installments of "the state of generative AI vs. the industry" discussing all fields AI will be transforming: visual arts, writing, programming, engineering, etc.
This is also mainly a problem in countries where there are not yet too many laws for AI generated content. Luckily in the US and a few other countries AI generated content cannot be protected under copyright or possibly be trademarked so in those countries graphic design companies are luckily still forced to rely on human designers! :)
excited? no, all genuinely creative people are rightfully worried about having to wait out this avalanche of crap. Scum is excited because AI mangled kitch is better than anything they could have ever thaught of.
Another thing that AI is really useful for is creating perfectly tillable textures for 3D texturing which was previously almost impossible with many texture types.
I dont think AI will replace designers. Just look at the history of work that designers have done, it's incredible and without AI. Theres a lot of techniques that can still be explored without AI, and plus AI is not authentic imo.
I wouldn't invite the it's like us take. It's math, weights and biases. Until it could think for itself and make creative decisions I'm still taking it as mashup of other people's work. It's one thing to imagine something in your head (or even come up with a thought, as someone with aphantasia I know an image in your head isn't all you need) and another to put it on paper and create it. AI "art" is just thoughts, some cool thoughts but just thoughts, not someone's art
The Graphic design industry killed itself when it jumped on the Apple flat design bandwagon, when a 10 year old using MS paint, can knock out something indistinguishable from most UI graphic designers these days, is it any wonder that the crappy poster art which Machine learning is churning out is threatening your livelihood.
I am a graphics deaigner.. doing this work..like 2 years now.. all i know, AI can't replace us. AI is a tool which makes our easy and less time comsuming.. However, AI don't know anything about details and overall composition.. all we can do is Adopt the AI..
Yes but as it is with everything, you got to see the thin boarder between: AI helps / and AI does the job without much of my help. And this goes piece by piece.
The corporation will replace humans in a heartbeat as soon as they realize they don't have to pay living rates to artists anymore. AI not only streamlines a process, like scanning instead of stats, it does the entire job.
Ai is going to be like the Ipod it's just a tool. It's not going to replace how to communicate or create something that's going to make a mood of emotions.
I don't think graphic designer can be totally replaced by AI. However, if one day AI is really that good such that it can replace human graphic designer, it's just advancement of technology which is not a bad thing.
Notice how all the design-related content creators are all optimistic about AI, they all tell you that you shouldn't be afraid of it, and that it won't take away your job, meanwhile there are massive layoffs everywhere, no hirings for not just graphic designers, but UX designers as well. If a company, or a client, can achieve "good enough" results with AI for 20% of the price they would have to pay for a human designer, best believe they will. Stop kidding yourself that AI is "just a tool", tools develop, and sooner or later, designers will be obsolete, once the client gets full control over the output of AI results.
@@willpatersondesignIDEO fired like 30% of their workforce, so did Netguru which was the largest UX software house in my country. Pretty much every tech company is making massive layoffs. Budgets overall are shrinking, and so does demand for designers. The company I work for, just fired some of our senior designers. The job market is fucked, and AI is not going to make it any better, by making design, and content-generation CHEAPER, faster, and more accessible to non-designers.
Already graphic designer and video editor are underpaid And after coming ai We lost all value of this creative field Now people are not accepting ai images directly But after some time every one will use it
AI is there to help. You have to learn how to use it to so it benefits you. Some people will lose their jobs yes but that's how the world works, Robots came and factory workers were laid off. As a graphic designer who is capable of using nearly any software, I support AI. Since AI I have stopped paying for stock images and create them myself. AI cannot communicate with my clients who have no background in design or prompt engineering, therefore I will not lose my job as I´ll always be a step ahead
AI may let average people (like me) use it instead of paying for a graphic designer to do it, however.. most people don't have the time or the will to do graphic designing, but graphic designers will be more productive, they can make more efficient designs in less time, they can use this ability to reduce their costs while make more designs which will make more people consider purchasing their works
of course it will replace the artists, no-talent people with money can now create the ultimate beautiful style stuff which I have seen, I hope people are not getting paid for what AI can do for anyone because it steals from the common man who's passion is in drawing all ideas are a 1st step with its own unique flood gates and once sin comes in it is fully abused and like so many other topics kills the whole community and their jobs like so many other categories have, people don't care about style, just "is it good" I wonder if AI will make one day be able to use deep fakes and people and make live action movies and videos someday and kill the whole content creator community which is already attacked, and over time people lose hope and submit in today's world
AI is a tool, just as Photoshop is a tool. In the right hands, amazing results with resonance, meaning and relevance can be achieved. In the wrong hands, the results will be garbage. How many times have you had a client who works in marketing that 'has Photoshop', instantly making them a designer? Then you see the results… The one thing that AI probably won't learn is madness. Us designers don't see the world the same way as the rest, which is how weird and wonderful ideas come about.
I’m an old designer from photoshop 1.1, I Remember freehand, pagemaker, macromedia director and flash that was the future. Ai is going to do what coders and html 5 did to me. Soon it will take over the movie industry. “ AI isn’t going to take over, people want”. People want fast, cheap and on time. So my advice find another job I just design for fun, don’t expect to much. 5 dollar logos and cheap labor will finish the rest. The end is near repent or not I’m not religious.
The problem is that AI is not what people think AI is based on what science fiction television ... one day it will think for itself...be human... etc... AI is not AI in the sense that it begun as single cells as human intelligence evolved over eons... It is still all backed by someone's programming. If you've fallen for the schtick then you're part of the copyright problem. That's my opinion.
Yes, it's too ambiguous a term. The sci fi AI that's sentient and has its own goals is strong AI, and the jury's out on whether it's possible. What we've actually got is weak AI.
I have been struggle that when I go to my screen to make something, my mind got blanked. however I had searched a lot before I going to my screen, but still I got blanked. How to solve this question. and also I want to know the types of popular different art styles of graphic design, so that we can think on that direction.

Ai can generate some cool designs but Ai can never have the thinking and struggle that make the designs more better.......
Logo design has always been a big part of the design services I offer. Just the past month I have had three small business clients send me logo examples that "they did themselves" using MidJourney and wanted me to just "fix" their choices. With one of those clients, I initially offered them a couple fairly refined designs up front as a starting point and they came back with 20 MidJourney examples they liked better. I don't see any way to compete as this takes hold (and shortly they will probably offer AI generated vector logo sets of choices!). While A.I. has been helping me as a designer in the short term, the writing is on the wall as far as the bulk of logo design.
Same here, I do a fair amount of logo design and AI does have me worried when it comes to that line of work
Have fun cuz ur gonna lose ur job
@@echoyeggo898 you lost your job already 🤣
i used upwork to get logo but believe me i generate logo on Gpt now a days and it perfect. Many of my customers who create logo themself and sending me to put in website.
I miss the days where AI stood for Adobe Illustrator
😂 I still say ai for Adobe illustrator.
Yes bro
I miss a lot of things. The World is going downhill at an exponential rate, and technology is at the helm of it all.
AI always stood for Artificial Inteligence too, but it was the good AI as of NPCs or CPUs instead of whatever the hell we have now
Me too bro 😂
Everyone here seems really optimistic about AI not taking over design jobs, mostly because of things that AI can't do right now, forgetting how quickly AI can be improved and learn to do what it couldn't do before. I believe that, eventually, AI will be able to do ANYTHING, and it will get easier and easier for us to tell it what to do and get the exact results we want. It may not get there in the next 5-10 years, but you can be damn sure it will happen eventually.
3 months later, and AI can now make PERFECT graphic designs, and now also video once Sora is released.
@@InsanityShorts_TV plus most developed ai art these days dont have 'glitchy hands' anymore, they still look uncanny af but just give it another year and i bet we couldn't even tell it's ai art. The future is looking pretty bleak tbh.
I give it 5 years and everything will be ai… architects, digital art, logo makers will be all gone from the business. Millions of companies will use it instead of paying humans. Time is money and higher up the corps all people care about is money.
1 year later, AI now can even generate videos that looks really realistic. You can make video just from a simple prompt. Idk what will happened next, but I really worried about my future as a graphic designer
Game AI programmer here, with some background in ML technic. I use to say the same thing about AI doing the same thing as the human does to generate new art, but a writer with a law degree made me change my mind about the whole thing, and made me switch my stance to 'yes it is indeed theft'.
The main argument is that it is a machine and not a human who is doing the analysis, and the machine is own by a company who is making profit out of it. The only intellectual property these company are entitled to is the source code of the AI, but that code is useless unless it can analyze thousands of different images, all of which is own by different artist. Effectively, the AI only work with the intellectual property of people who do not work for that company.
Now does that solve the issue in the long run ? Not really, because these company can still hire artist to feed the machine data and then we come back to the same thing as today. But essentially, what midjourney and OpenAI is doing is theft right now. ChatGPT work because of the hundreds of article it analyze from the internet, none of it written by people who work directly for OpenAI. Their algorithm is useless without it, and they make profit out of other people hard work. Same thing can be said about midjourney.
Good comment! Although, (playing devils advocate here) wouldn't you point mean that any ideas coming from AI would be theft? Humans working for large companies combine ideas and we don't call that theft. We don't say that D&D stole LOTR for example.
It's an interesting topic and I love discussions around this. Looking forward to your response :)
🤭🤭 hehehe saw the video of the writer with a law degree
Is it still theft if it mixes different art styles together?? Or robotic inspiration? haha
I’m scared of AI since I’m in college rn learning about design and spending a ton to do so, and if it isn’t worth it then I’m screwed
ME TOO
same case for me
First, sorry for my bad language..don’t worry, just add to learn marketing skills and learn everything new
As someone who has studied graphic arts and worked for years in the game industry. It's going to suck, I've worked for apple arcade android and Netflix. They all started to use ai. I've lost my job cuz of it some months ago.
A "LOT" of college courses are already futile, a sad thing to say. I have a degree in illustration which seems ridiculous to me now. I still do illustration now n again, but it isn't my main job and never will be. :(
I've been designing books for 20 years, if AI can design a book to a high standard then I have a problem. But it doesn't end there. Adobe will have a massive problem because who will need Adobe Creative Suite when/if AI can do everything in Creative Suite. I imagine that's why, when announcing Firefly, Adobe emphasised AI won't replace the designer and they'll steer their company in that direction. The next few years will be interesting. Thanks for an interesting watch!
That's a very interesting and wise point Thanks for watching :)
Gonna be some sweet karma when AI replaces the very programmers who created it and caused the rest of us to lose our jobs
This will happen lol
Yes and not just graphic design all creative industries. The people who hire creatives don’t give a toss about being creative they only care about money and if they can save a few dollars using ai instead of hiring you, you damn well know they will. Chatgpt and midjourney are already putting people out of work and it’s only going to get worse
I think graphic design will still exist as a job for awhile, but only for really big brands. And one designer will do the work of multiple existing titles today. So a "graphic designer" will be a 3D modeler, web designer, logo designer, etc all at once with the help of AI
That's what I fear too.
It is. And the job amount will be discrase while alot of graphic designer born every second
As far as i could remeber i always wanted to be a designer. I tried a lot of jobs but only design was something to give me motivation to grown and live a life. Now almost 30 percent of designers are replaced. What a truly wonderful purpose of AI, to take jobs from people and ruin their lives
I just saw a documentary film with an expert in the field of AI. And he said that the knowledge with which AI makes itself smarter is happening very fast and will go even faster the more years will pass.Within 10 to 20 years, he predicts that AI will be up to 100,000 times smarter than the average human. I have to work at least 30 more years until I can go on retirement. So yes, I fear for my job as a graphic designer!
If this is true, capitalism will need retimerent since everybody is gonna be out of job.
what documentary was this?
Exponential growth!
My gripe with AI is the number of people using it to call themselves 'artists' or 'designers' or 'writers' because theyve been told they can make X amount of money by putting a few words into a prompt box. Easy. They dont have to be creative, or put in the time or training to know what they're doing. No consistency or professionalism. Just look at the cases of AI producing 'art' with the original artist's signature or copyright still on it! Unfortunately i think the trend is here to stay but i hope more regulation comes in so the real creatives dont have to jump through so many hoops to be seen or stop their work from being stolen.
I think a bit part of the missing debate is commodification. Perhaps an AI uses a similar process to create art as a human does, but there is no human labour involved - a non-artist profits financially from knowledge production that they have not contributed to or put effort into
I work as a graphic designer for a company and the photoshop AI tool is used on a daily basis by all of us designers, for removing unwanted objects from images in second s
As an illustrator I am busier than ever. AI can come up with some pretty interesting and amazing visuals, but if you have something specific in mind then you have to really work hard to communicate to it exactly what you want. It lacks the experience that a human illustrator has. That said, it can be useful when you are looking for some ideas, or if you just want it to generate some reference images or some color palate, composition, textures, thumbnail ideas, etc. I have even been able to coax it, after hours of prompting, to generate some pretty good foundations which I can then use as a basis to paint on top of. It's sort of like working with an intern. They bring some of their own ideas to the table, but at the end of the day their job is to work with you to help you create your own unique vision.
You know you can ask AI to refine designs over and over again until you get what you desire? It is very impressive.
Yes
How are you finding work as an illustrator? I been struggling to figure it out as SM doesnt really promote artists like it used to
@@DandyPants-nw2cu It's always been a very tough industry to break into. It's taken me years to build my portfolio and make the contacts, learn the business, and get my name out there. I've been at it for decades now. At this point, certain authors ask their publishers to have me illustrate their books by name, because they like my work. At the same time, certain publishers have me on regular rotation because I'm easy to work with and they know that they can expect a certain quality of work from me. It just takes a ton of work and a lot of time, and yes a certain amount of luck, to get to where you can make a living at it.
What do you illustrate ? Books, logos ? What's your area ? I want to get into illustration...
I think AI will eventually replace most design/artistic jobs based on how fast its improving unless higher ups decide to make laws against the use of AI work which these laws would obv be limited to the countries that adopt it but I dont see any other way AI wont replace art jobs unless some type of intervention like this occurs.
clients are already saying.... "that's so expensive isn't it cheaper using AI"... the future is grim for creatives and people that do data entry.... and no it's not going to create "other jobs".... why because AI will build the solution as soon as it recognizes each problem it creates.... and the Prompts will become easier than ever you'll be using natural language soon and AI will know better than you what you want....
Honestly for me the main problem is the capitalism, its an amazing tool that could be used to enhance and make our lives easier, but in reality it will be used by big companies to replace artists and not pay them, i dont care if ai use a similar way of 'creating' than human artists, we need to work to survive and they are trying to take it from us, thats why its so important to regulate It as soon as possible
@@r.kimberlycalandrine6191 I think it's detailed in depth work that a average Joe can't do and it's best to hire a pro for cooler results
Its true.. capitalism and big company win alot this era...
AI has been around a lot longer than many realize but recently has grown geometrically. The reason AI is not being regulated is because the large greedy corporations are making sure our politicians pay no attention to the issue.
There will always be a gap between those who are trained in design and those whose are not. Therefore AI will not replace designers as an average user will not have the knowledge to use AI to create what is considered as a good design, its like canva, there will always be limitations as to how far the non designer user can go. For example, commercially can someone claim the copyright to a design that they only gave a prompt for and did not literally make it themselves, i don’t think so. 😅
It’s great to hear a more balanced and refined opinion from you on AI, Will. I appreciate the research you’ve done and the growth you’ve shown.
Yeah, I figured I wasn't giving enough information about why thoughts. So hopefully as many people can find this video helpful in understanding my thoughts on this! The teleprompter is a wonderful thing ha
@@willpatersondesign You were clear and insightful while establishing your stance. I think people will vibe with this one. Thanks for putting it out.
Its killing it the same way HDR killed photography for a few years where every amateur thought they had to use it turned up to 11.
Once the novelty wears off and people get sick of all the similar midjourney images, real design and skill will still be left.
Anyone can type an idea into AI but you still need skill to do anything useful with it, or god forbid actually "edit" it.
Fucking hopefully dude, fucking hopefully
@@selenophile5256 yea bro
In think the harm of AI is that customers use it as a cheap and okayish alternative to human designers. The quality of creative work is devalued when mediocre becomes the new good.
But we get a lot of great tools in all fields. As you said, AI is just part of the development.
A lot of people already undervalue art made by humans. What more when they can use AI? They'll just say "This is too easy"
I am a 3D artist and have been for 15 years and I don't feel remotely threatened by the rise of AI tools. At the end of the day, AI can and never will replace the human creative mind. We all know whether the art from is 2D or 3D, it cannot be randomnly generated. There are nuances (and painful clients) AI will never be able to manage/appease. Don't worry. Look at AI as a cool tool, not a replacement of artists.
You are just not smelling the coffee yet. Give it time 😊😅
Years ago we were told ai can’t be creative yet here we are. Today ai is the worst it will ever be tomorrow it will be better than it was today. You are right that it can’t replace human creative minds but the people who hire you oh they don’t care about that they only care about how much money they can save. People are already losing their jobs because of chatgpt and midjourney and eventually it will replace you
I agree with you on that. But does your boss? Will big wigs be able to tell the difference and actually have sense, or will they just cut costs as much as possible. If we are goin off of history, the answer is obvious.
The fact that Hollywierd is already firing writers and they are being replaced with ChatGPT should worry us. I'm following AI for about 3 years now and every year it's advancing exponentially faster
@@thejomah Its not that simple though. Anyone in the industry "doing" this creative work knows, it cannot be automated. Sure, certain very simple tasks can be, but most things cannot. As an artist, I have complete autonomy on what I create, and yet STILL I sometimes find it near on impossible to translate exactly what a client wants (mostly because they like to change their minds). AI cannot predict the inconsistencies of the client, the brief changing. For me its too broad an assumption to just think AI can one day simply "take over". For me, it can't. You will never automate human creativity and thought, and true understanding of a brief. Consider how intricate and particular some of these briefs/tasks are, how bespoke they can be. AI cannot be so precise.
Thank you so much @Will Paterson. I have recently started learning graphic designing and your videos help me so very much. I am a newbie but a great mentor/guru like you is really an asset in many ways. So thank you once again. Just keep up the good word and stay blessed always.
One thing is for certain, Companies don't want problems solved in a creative way. They just want them solved.
I think it will be hard for ai to replace graphic designers because for almost every logo there is some emotional aspects in it that an ai won’t be able to induce. Just my opinion.
I do agree about the emotional aspect, but the reality is that not a lot of people care about what we as creatives value, most startups and companies wanna get things done as fast and cheap as they can, I can see AI making it more difficult for freelancers and designers to get jobs
@@Meeko2689 bad take
@@hammerandthewrench7924 how is that a bad take , jus my opinion and what I have learned through my years of experience
@@hammerandthewrench7924 he must be doing money using AI
@osk2689 That's right! Only large corporations/companies understand the value of a custom logo, when considering their brand strategy and marketing objectives. Your average start up only wants a logo, so they can get to doing business. They don't care about brand identity. Therefore, they would be satisfied with clip art. Lol
As humans we weirdly pat ourselves on the back with being creative and believe that's something that cannot be replicated. But like you've said, creativity is just the combination of multiple ideas and generating something "unique" from the inspiration. Unfortunately ai can take inspiration from thousands of examples in a few seconds and do exactly that. At the moment it's clunky and doesn't really get it right, but it's only a matter of time before it does.
Doomer.
This made me laugh. But I totally get the point ha
I disagre as Ai just mash things togther. As the definition of creative is the use of imagination or original ideas to create something; inventiveness. The Ai dosent Invent you do, you tell the Ai what to do, you are the pilot. So learn to fly the plane cause it will not drive itself. What do you think would happen if your boss used Ai? He probably would make shit art, cause his job is not creative. The I Think you fear is little Timmy in his moms House working his ass of to learn Ai and likes art. If you dont learn to use Ai as a tool Timmy will replace you. But its not like this is new, this happend before with Photo bahshing.
But you also have to remeber some of the best art was made with constrains, just look at South park. Simple cardboard figures, that everyone could make. But why did it became popular, Well cause the simple stopmotion animation work great with the humor. I have a hard time seeing Ai making something like Southpark.
Even though my skills are close to Ai to the point people mistake my art for ai
they would choose ai over me for cost effective reasons
Just try to avoid all of those samey anime filters if you can, it can't do or doesn't do often more handdrawn or wholesome art, don't have big fake glossy colors try to differentiate yourself if you aren't Sorry just thinking of some things to help.
And this is why I tell everyone not to get comfortable because you will become irrelevant. Try new things and accept change. Because that change is inevitable
@@N95G do u think capitalists care? they treat jobless ppl like subhuman
lol its not like that, we have the right to fight for our rights, we cant just let this shit run over artists, machines dont need to work to survive, they dont need jobs, we do. But of course big companies will prefer cheap souless art/design than give job to ppl
Your completely right. The people who can't except this are incredibly naïve I'm sorry to say.
An aspect that always seems to be forgotten in this discussion is that AI itself has no "intent".
I think about that a lot. And also that AI can't use an emotional experience to inform a choice. But it feels like a lot of people don't understand this? Like business owners?
@@andreakhaid It might take a while but at some point, people will yearn for human made stuff...there might a crazy renaissance of it cause people will sense that something is missing in AI creations...its almost spiritual. They might see it after they lost it.
The problem with comparing human creativity with ai process (whether you think they're the same or not), is the scale, the argument fails when you realise that is not a single person using your work as a reference and one day that person might become competition, it is a billion dollar company. I also find it curious how those who have this optmistic view of ai say it is the tool that will do the heavy lifiting while we humans are free to do what we "love" but all I see is ai drawing, singing and writing while the heavy labour remains untouched =/
My team and ALL of my clients have let their graphic design DEPARTMENT go. Less than a 4th of our budget goes to freelancers who are bidding for the lowest dollar. I do not say this as doom and gloom. I say this as delivering the reality that no youtuber would ever say on a video (yet). It is time to specialize in something different.
@@leedolian4482 bro should I study motion graphic designing course prior ? Coz I’m worried about future
@@leedolian4482 so graphic design job is not sustainable in future'
AI will be the end of humanity eventually, We wont see it but we will experience the all kind of negative effects of it during our life time.
i cry the money ive spent in design college
In my office I was in charge of graphic design, but just a few months ago, some coworkers learn to use Canva. I use to make my designs on vectors manipulating every node to get the shape I want, I take the pictures I use on my designs, but now any guy with enough knowledge just to pick and drop elements on a computer will make the same job I do, and with thousands of templates to choose, even will do better designs that my designs. My boss was like: "Hey, now you´re not the only one that knows how to design".
Designer here, AI is not an enemy - it’s a tool. You creativity is what makes an AI produced design stand out. Machine can only do that much. We shouldn’t be afraid of change, but adapt and make it work for us, instead of fighting everything everywhere.
Ps: Though i am strongly against AI platforms using copyrighted works to fuel their databases…
Senior roles will not be replaced, junior roles will disappear.
now the problem would be there would be NO juniors left to replace the seniors when they retire, which might come back to bite us in the ass.
When all the new graphics that come out will all look like the same slop, we'd start to probably think this was a bad idea.
like how mass produced flimsy nonsense started replacing the hardcrafted and sturdy appliances of the past, we'd start to wonder maybe we made a mistake somewhere.
Yes, Ai won't replace the artist but it will replace the job of an artist with a prompt specialist.
Take it or Leave it!
I've always wanted to learn art and hopefully make a career out if it. But with the rise of Ai, I might just take art as an hobby.
A large percent of humans care about only results regardless of the process used to achieve it. This is onr reason why i believe companies will replace the human with a machine to get the job done faster
There is no objective measure of what 'good' design is- as a painter I have been outcompeted by people who I would regard as 'visually illiterate' in terms of their grasp of even basic aesthetic values, let alone good design principles- but people still purchased their work- why? Because it was hanging in a gallery and the owner told them it was art- and that was enough.
Consider the following scenario- I knew of an art gallery that sold works for thousands ( not mine, sadly) and this gallary happened to be quite near to a site where each saterday morning people would park up their cars and sell their household junk for giveaway prices ( In the UK we call these events 'boot fairs'.) It occurred to me one day that if I took one of those expensive paintings from that gallery , walked a short way to that site and offered that same painting for sale, it's price would have dropped by 99%- even the kind of people who would be happy to buy that painting in the gallery for full price would not be willing to pay even a reasonable fraction of that price if it were offerd for sale in the boot fair. The painting had not changed- only the context in which it stood.
That's when I realised that I was not selling Art, I was selling a mythology- the idea of art. The value of a given instance of art or design is largely determined by the cultural myths surrounding it's creation and sale.
Basically there are two competing mythologies in play here- the first is the mystique of the trained human professional designer, the second the mystique of 'artificial intelligence' the shiney new kid on the block of graphic design- the fate of human designers will largely rest upon which one of these mythologies proves the most appealing to the market. The real danger that AI poses to all sorts of professionalls is not that it will do their jobs better or even that it will undercut their prices- its that the Mythology of 'AI' will prove so appealing and compelling to their clients that those clients may well accept linferior products or services because they feel that using this quasi magical 'artificial intelligence' is what they should be doing in order to be correctly aligned with the mood of the times- they may even be afraid not to use AI because this may make them look fearful and overcautious in their approach to innovation.
Narrative is the driver of almost all human behaviors, and I fear that as mere humans our narrative may not be sufficiantly compelling to hold the line against the new generation of AI powered storytellers- the very opacity of AI's internal workings and the essential mystery of how it comes to do the things it does should be a weakness, a point of attack that we humans might levearge in our upcoming battle- but in terms of narrative what could be more appealing than a magical black box that both does your bidding but also adds in surprises of it's own creation?
I completely agree that AI isn't unethical in using original work for a model, which is identical in many ways to the way we, as human designers, gain inspiration from others work. It's in HOW you use it, not just that it's being used, that makes it unethical.
We do it but it takes years to get good at it and we can't flood the market with lazy ideas that way. It takes days to produce the work of many years not and make the hard work of others invisible.
AI will transform the industry, just as the introduction of the Mac and Adobe did in the mid 80s, when it displaced pasteup artists... Suddenly skills like ruling with a Rapidograph, cutting rubylith, and making photostats were obsolete. The hi-end design jobs will still be fine, but the lower level designer jobs who work for small companies were cost is always the main concern will be the ones who will be most effected, as AI will be faster and cheaper for a lot of "Boiler Plate" type projects.
I think AI will improve the design industry it would help designers get ideas
I disagree. I can see the positives side of AI to help designers make their workflow easier, but as soon as AI get more mainstream it would make it more difficult for design to get jobs
Companies will cut cost and use AI instead of hiring people
Will, I plan to major in graphic design for uni next year, and every uni website I look at has a degree that leads to graphic design under a different name- fine arts, studio arts, design, and so on- could you help and explain what I should be looking for when trying to find a degree that can put me on the graphic design career path?
To compare AI with humans and saying anything along the lines of "it's taking inspiration from other artists like humans do" still doesn't justify AI making similar artwork and images to those posted on the Internet and are copyrighted. It's simply because a human mind will know the ethics- that they have to change something in their final product to not infringe the copyright of the image they took inspiration from but who's going to teach AI the same ethics?
Exactly - who will teach Ai ethics? This is my thoughts.
Great video. Stuff like this has been happening for ages. We adapt and move on.
I have a question: which creative fields within the graphic and visual design realm or similar will remain AI proof? 3D and video/animation? Or will it compensate to be a jack of all trades also versed in prompting? Or should we focus on marketing and business instead? I feel we should adapt and start thinking right now about strategies for full proofing our careers. Which is hard if we have in mind that all white collar jobs are in danger.
AI will absolutely transform the industry. As well as everything else.
So what do you think about the graphic designer whether you lose your job or not؟
Awesome video! 🎉
I wonder if the government will eventually ban AI 😂
It might kill behance and other websites that are used to share proyects as this are mined for AI sampling. Other than that. Smart AI will be just as likely to land a bettet prrsentation as a skilled artist
On its own? No.
In combination with the growing number of bad companies, bosses, managers etc who want quick and cheap, don't respect the designer and will happily exploit them becuse it's such a saturated market of people willing to do anything to make it? Certainly since covid - in my experience where I am in the UK and in my particular sector - I've noticed a growing trend in the number of such poor / cheap types.
Then yeah, it could be a problem.
AI isn't sentient and Human sentience is what i think makes creativity authentic. Human graphic design will be better because of such sentience. A human can understand someone's desire for a specific design whereas AI can't. AI doesn't understand when someone creates "The feel of" or "The vibe of" something whereas humans know what that means.
That's cool, but can we make it pop?
AI: explodes

I had this discussion yeasterday with someone in the field and he told me its just basically going on the upper octave. that doesnt necessarilly change anything. He told me, even nowaydays, everyone can make their graphics using programs, but still, the local vegetables fair (per say) has flyers which suck.

Once everyone will have their own ai images, they' re just gonna set a new plateau of mediocrity in which there will always be peaks of professionals
The A. I wouldn't be replacing you, but the Person with the A. I knowledge would surely do that.
Any updates on this? Firefly v2 and Midjourney v6 have been now out for a some time and they can produce pretty nice photographic images or graphic art, but when you actually want to get some design work done in a professional manner, with high resolution output and no mistakes in them, they still suck really bad, make ton of mistakes and thus can only be considered as assistive tools in the overall design workflow.
Should i make a video about V2? :)
@@willpatersondesign Maybe you (or someone) should do regular installments of "the state of generative AI vs. the industry" discussing all fields AI will be transforming: visual arts, writing, programming, engineering, etc.
Welcome to the beggining of the world where nothing but ai vomit exists
This is also mainly a problem in countries where there are not yet too many laws for AI generated content. Luckily in the US and a few other countries AI generated content cannot be protected under copyright or possibly be trademarked so in those countries graphic design companies are luckily still forced to rely on human designers! :)
excited? no, all genuinely creative people are rightfully worried about having to wait out this avalanche of crap. Scum is excited because AI mangled kitch is better than anything they could have ever thaught of.
Another thing that AI is really useful for is creating perfectly tillable textures for 3D texturing which was previously almost impossible with many texture types.
I dont think AI will replace designers. Just look at the history of work that designers have done, it's incredible and without AI. Theres a lot of techniques that can still be explored without AI, and plus AI is not authentic imo.
AI is to the intellectual worker what the engine is to the physical laborer. BTW AI wouldn't have been able to create my logo.
I wouldn't invite the it's like us take. It's math, weights and biases. Until it could think for itself and make creative decisions I'm still taking it as mashup of other people's work. It's one thing to imagine something in your head (or even come up with a thought, as someone with aphantasia I know an image in your head isn't all you need) and another to put it on paper and create it. AI "art" is just thoughts, some cool thoughts but just thoughts, not someone's art
Prompt professionals is the new job. Minimum wage creating art that most people will never accomplish.

Thank you so much for the video, at least hope is still alive 😂
The Graphic design industry killed itself when it jumped on the Apple flat design bandwagon, when a 10 year old using MS paint, can knock out something indistinguishable from most UI graphic designers these days, is it any wonder that the crappy poster art which Machine learning is churning out is threatening your livelihood.

Yes but as it is with everything, you got to see the thin boarder between: AI helps / and AI does the job without much of my help. And this goes piece by piece.
The corporation will replace humans in a heartbeat as soon as they realize they don't have to pay living rates to artists anymore. AI not only streamlines a process, like scanning instead of stats, it does the entire job.
Yup, bang on the money a lot of people disagree 5 years all comic books will be ai etc money money money
Ai is going to be like the Ipod it's just a tool. It's not going to replace how to communicate or create something that's going to make a mood of emotions.
Quality video again will!
Glad you think so!
I don't think graphic designer can be totally replaced by AI. However, if one day AI is really that good such that it can replace human graphic designer, it's just advancement of technology which is not a bad thing.
I thought you were going to talk about Adobe Illustrator at first 😅😅
hahah
Yeah dude, we don´t want to replace people....but capitalist and CEO´s will do it. Imagine what the creators of sweatshops will do with such tech.
thats it! here in brazil a publishing company already used AI to create all the illustrations for a deluxe book, its nasty
@@r.kimberlycalandrine6191 what publisher did it? quem fez isso ?
I don't need to avoid copyright on my sountracks images anymore.
Hi will. I am your new subscriber 😊
Thanks for subbing! It means the world to me :)
Notice how all the design-related content creators are all optimistic about AI, they all tell you that you shouldn't be afraid of it, and that it won't take away your job, meanwhile there are massive layoffs everywhere, no hirings for not just graphic designers, but UX designers as well. If a company, or a client, can achieve "good enough" results with AI for 20% of the price they would have to pay for a human designer, best believe they will. Stop kidding yourself that AI is "just a tool", tools develop, and sooner or later, designers will be obsolete, once the client gets full control over the output of AI results.
Which design agency has had huge layoffs?
@@willpatersondesignIDEO fired like 30% of their workforce, so did Netguru which was the largest UX software house in my country. Pretty much every tech company is making massive layoffs. Budgets overall are shrinking, and so does demand for designers. The company I work for, just fired some of our senior designers. The job market is fucked, and AI is not going to make it any better, by making design, and content-generation CHEAPER, faster, and more accessible to non-designers.
The loudness of silence here is defeaning ☠️
@@Adrian-SkoReally even uiux designers getting fired and that is seniors and experienced
Already graphic designer and video editor are underpaid
And after coming ai
We lost all value of this creative field
Now people are not accepting ai images directly
But after some time every one will use it
Love from India..❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
AI can't make a good logo design YET!!!
AI is there to help. You have to learn how to use it to so it benefits you. Some people will lose their jobs yes but that's how the world works, Robots came and factory workers were laid off. As a graphic designer who is capable of using nearly any software, I support AI. Since AI I have stopped paying for stock images and create them myself. AI cannot communicate with my clients who have no background in design or prompt engineering, therefore I will not lose my job as I´ll always be a step ahead
This piece of text, pretending to be someone's thoughts, was brought to you by Chat GPT...
*Great video!*
AI may let average people (like me) use it instead of paying for a graphic designer to do it, however.. most people don't have the time or the will to do graphic designing, but graphic designers will be more productive, they can make more efficient designs in less time, they can use this ability to reduce their costs while make more designs which will make more people consider purchasing their works
of course it will replace the artists, no-talent people with money can now create the ultimate beautiful style stuff which I have seen, I hope people are not getting paid for what AI can do for anyone because it steals from the common man who's passion is in drawing all ideas are a 1st step with its own unique flood gates and once sin comes in it is fully abused and like so many other topics kills the whole community and their jobs like so many other categories have, people don't care about style, just "is it good" I wonder if AI will make one day be able to use deep fakes and people and make live action movies and videos someday and kill the whole content creator community which is already attacked, and over time people lose hope and submit in today's world
Sometimes AI is like a rough drawing, a littlemore advanced and approximately accurate
AI is a tool, just as Photoshop is a tool. In the right hands, amazing results with resonance, meaning and relevance can be achieved. In the wrong hands, the results will be garbage. How many times have you had a client who works in marketing that 'has Photoshop', instantly making them a designer? Then you see the results…
The one thing that AI probably won't learn is madness. Us designers don't see the world the same way as the rest, which is how weird and wonderful ideas come about.
And yet no one will care that much how you see the world, because everyone can quickly build their own version soon.
I’m an old designer from photoshop 1.1, I Remember freehand, pagemaker, macromedia director and flash that was the future. Ai is going to do what coders and html 5 did to me. Soon it will take over the movie industry. “ AI isn’t going to take over, people want”. People want fast, cheap and on time. So my advice find another job I just design for fun, don’t expect to much. 5 dollar logos and cheap labor will finish the rest. The end is near repent or not I’m not religious.
The problem is that AI is not what people think AI is based on what science fiction television ... one day it will think for itself...be human... etc... AI is not AI in the sense that it begun as single cells as human intelligence evolved over eons... It is still all backed by someone's programming. If you've fallen for the schtick then you're part of the copyright problem. That's my opinion.
Yes, it's too ambiguous a term. The sci fi AI that's sentient and has its own goals is strong AI, and the jury's out on whether it's possible. What we've actually got is weak AI.
I have been struggle that when I go to my screen to make something, my mind got blanked. however I had searched a lot before I going to my screen, but still I got blanked. How to solve this question. and also I want to know the types of popular different art styles of graphic design, so that we can think on that direction.
Especially with this video now online I really would've loved for you to answer the questionnaire for my master's thesis on this exact topic. 😔
I can help you with your master thesis
The more ai the higher the demand for human made stuff trust
do what u love to do and see what happens loved that❤
Personally I think Ai manipulates already made work, and steals it, then owns its.
I am saying this because i have been using it
Makes sense when you say it.
