What are your thoughts on artificial intelligence replacing us?

[LocidSmake]

"Humans want to interact with humans" Thank you! People underestimate their own need for human connection! If you don't want to be replaced by a machine, maybe don't act like one...

Creative Director and designer since the late 90's here... the final point about us destroying us, 1000% agree. AI freaks me out, but the hot garbage I see coming from the self educated community of designers is a huge issue. Lame work at pathetic pricing is devaluing what all of us who did pay our dues in college, as interns, as junior designers, as graphic designers, as senior designers, and hopefully as the director, do professionally. I believe in the ranks of designers and I believe in earning your place as a designer. It's so bad that I think we should go back to certified designers. You should see the junk that people think makes a good portfolio, shameful. Not to mention not understanding the standards of web, publication, packaging, illustration, identity, branding (real branding, not this I made a logo BS), and typography. If you don't know what standard proof marks are and how to read them, question your status as a designer. Do you know what a bad break is, or orphans, or widows? Never heard of the golden mean or golden ratio? What is a die line? Ever heard of preflighting? If you didn't think yes to all of that, learn or get out. Yes, I'm gatekeeping, because the rats have already snuck under the gate. Now the rest of us, who know what we are doing, are spending too much time playing exterminator.

Tech is improving really fast...
When she says AI can't replace humans 'yet', I don't think she's sure ...
I don't think anyone is

[sonbaradock]

I'm very nervous and don't know which field I should choose.
I study video editing, graphic design, programming and German language .. all of these at the same time. I love them all

Have been a Computer Science Programmer and Graphic Designer/Artist/Photographer since ever. My Friends in Milan (Top Fashion Graphic Designers working for Brands as Gucci) are already being axed from their job, that means receiving a farewell message saying: "we do not need you any more". In Tuscany, Italy, where I am now writing this text we have a Drone Tractor: it performs in a day the same job 12 people do in a week! My Job in Graphic Design? I gave up Graphic Design years ago. Being a Programmer Developer I begun working much with A.I. in 2012. I understood then Graphic Design as well Graphic Arts (so on Photography) would have been in ten years heavily flattened, shrunk, downturned by A.I. Itself. Being a Programmer for A.I. in Aeronautics allowed me to become a Helicopter Pilot. I studied Helicopter Flight of course!. Well.... are you aware of the AIRBUS DRAGONFLY Project? Is not a Project, is REAL: the first Airplane able to Take Off, Fly then Land with NO PILOTS... is here, 300 feet far from me, in Tuscany, Pisa, Italy!

Human create the future, AI documents the past. We work together

[MrLockie]

I feel we are being very naive to think this won’t replace us. Ai is in its very early stages and is already so impressive. I hate it, but I think we are fooling ourselves that the progress of Ai won’t replace 50-80% of the design work force. It might be a tool for a while but eventually briefs will just be sent to chat GPT instead of us and account handlers/clients will just talk with an Ai model until they get the refined result they want. Time to learn how to be a mechanic.

[issarihani]

I think that AI will be able to replace every thing that includes repetitive work and anything that requires a decision tree but when it comes to actual creativity, intuition, insight, critical thinking or thinking out of the box AI won't be able to replace us so we will still need human thinking abilities, I think that is what is meant by the statement "AI will help us do things faster".

[tommy_frimmel]

Thank you for your perspective, definitely helped me to see the "bright side" of it! :)

[nemowerongi]

I'm a graphic desginer and it's obvious we will definitely be replaced by AI. AI is already producing music and writing stories, how much harder can it be to generate digital art? You just tell the AI program "make me a brand identity for my food delivery business" and it gives you endless options to pick from... instantly! Humans are not going to be able to compete with that. My freaking profile pic is AI generated and it's sick... like, cmon lol

[dimifisher]

When a creator has no exact vision of what he wants to do where he wants to go with his art, then yes he will be replaced by Ai

[StephenWong]

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 not a bad thing.

[kydesigns]

I really like your vision about the AI, I also agree is that AI is not a threat to us because
lets say u hire a person who uses AI rather than a real graphic designer. This person who use AI doesn't have the ability to make changes over his work because the AI will generate a whole different Image.
So at the end they will need to learn graphic tools so they can modify the AI results.

[kiraburr]

This was really interesting and eases a little anxiety for me too!

[Adept]

I see everywhere people saying it will not replace graphic designers. As a graphic designer myself im extremely afraid and stressed everyday for my future. When i see on platforms people posting their ai art and calling themselves artist while artist themselves who worked hard and spent years learning and perfectioning their skills and not even get the recognition that those ai"artist" get, it make me stressed even

[damienabbott]

Hi Lauren- great to hear your views on AI and how it already has a major impact on our everyday work. Such a powerful and inspirational message to take away from this video - many thanks!!!

[Rubeninsular]

Was aware already that I use ai as a tool on programs on a daily basis to make the workflow faster, just like you said in the video. That being said, I do encourage people (artists in general, as I am one) to use technology as a great tool. I think that ai has lots of potential but it has to be regulated in regards on how much automation is being used to make any artwork, whether it's a digital painting or a music composition. Pretty sure there will be a separation of ai focused people against people that consider ai a way of cheating because that's what it sounds like. One example, as ai is like cheating (only if you use ai to let it do all of your artwork) with technology to make art just like Zuckerburg encourages his daughter to use ai to make art instead of him (if you have sons or daughters, believe me, they are your first priority) sitting down with her to develop basic skills with her hands, just like any ilustrator out there (I draw too). I don't encourage to support this automated technology to try to substitute our soul because our art is made of emotions and experience, that's something that ai will never be able to copy. That's why I don't support people saying that they're artists because their just throwing random commands to let a machine give them a result to compete against artists that do put their hard work and effort in making works of art.

Thank you so much for making this video, Lauren and adding your two cents on the issue of AI since it's something everyone is talking about now. You are so insightful and I have learned so much from your videos! This really helped add some clarity to how to view AI and has definitely put my mind at ease!

[darkwarrior]
