Ah, I see what you are saying. I’ll have to keep an eye out for those. I’m in a fair number of entertainment spaces and I feel like those businesses have the least budget for a designer. I used to be my own GIMP guy for years because I couldn’t pay anyone to edit my flyers. I wouldn’t use AI though. Part of the charm of my work was the obvious amateur enthusiasm. :-)
I think most of the people doing it don’t connect themselves with the harms of AI because labor is alienated from the results. If you had to murder Bambi every time you cleared woods for a data center you would actually feel bad about it. But if you just work in the mine that makes the metal that becomes the bullets in his gun, a lot of people don’t think about it hard enough to realize that they are unwillingly still part of the problem.
Anyway, fuck AI. Keep art and human creativity alive!
