Smashing Magazine: How AI Technology Will Transform Design
Gleb Kuznetsov wrote a post on Smashing Magazine about how Ai will transform design:
• AI-generated art is becoming increasingly popular and can potentially cut down on design work time.
• Designers should be aware of their limits when using AI tools, as they cannot control the outcome of their artwork.
• AI tools will not wholly replace human creativity but instead give designers a boost in productivity.
• There is still a risk of homogenized designs, but this is as true for human designs today as it will be for AI-generated designs in the future.
• Using AI tools could lead to legal troubles, which may become more evident as AI art becomes more commonplace.
