WHAT THE CLIENT ASKED FOR
Dan H. seeks a designer for creative assistance, emphasizing quality over AI-generated work.
Are Graphic Designers losing the war with AI? Sort of. But not really. We can all admit we are just watching clients pump out images with warped proportions, misaligned text and random floating objects that defy time and space and then wonder why their brand looks like it was designed by a microwave. AI slop is everywhere. Clients keep feeding prompts into a tool for a “quick save,” which I can understand in this current climate, but they then act shocked when the result has the visual integrity of a ransom note written by a blind man. Quality however still costs something in my opinion. Turns out “cheaper and faster” and “actually good” are still different things. As for changing the client mindset: maybe stop selling “AI vs designer” and start showing them the hybrid version, the one where a designer actually fixes the warped proportions and the garbled, misspelled, nonsensical, stupid text. Most clients aren’t ‘anti-designer’. They’re just hoping the microwave can do the job for free. If are happy to pay though and you need a designer, or know of any marketing managers or creative directors that are in need of creative assistance then please let me know.
