Suppose you have a budget of $20.

Do you think you will find good artists working for that fee?

I don't think so, unless they are working to prove a point -- that humans can be as good as AI.

And that's the problem:

Humans can be as good as AI, but they are much more expensive.

Maybe you have a friend that's trying to get started in design and could do a favor for a chance to build a portfolio.

  • Would someone who's "trying to get started in design" be able to make anything as good as these AI posters? And how would they survive in a world where machines can do their job for free?

    I suppose human artists will continue to exist, but they will be like chess players: they will continue to exist simply because they love art, but they won't be able to compete with AI.

    ETA: less than 2 years.
