When a company uses a photocopier, they don’t want to pay a scribe.
When a company sends an email or docu-sign, they don’t want to pay a courier.
Technology supplements or replaces jobs, often reducing costs. This is no different.
Art isn't just a job or a way to make money, like being a courier is.
For corporate art it is. Nobody draws memphis out of passion.
The real victims here are going to be the graphic designers who worked for firework importers.

If art isn't your job then it probably doesn't matter how good AI gets, you're still going to make art, and you'll do it however you want. If anything, capable tools will allow people who want to make art for art's sake but lack the skill to express their ideas.
I don't think brand designers or graphic designers are going anywhere.
Yes, the lower end of the market will be decimated. But that's been the case for a long time now. Services like Fiverr have already driven the value of that tier of service down to basically nothing.
