When AI takes over mass production, only creators who paint ideas—not trends—remain.
Digital artists will move closer to modern artists;
their “studio” is now BOOTH, FANBOX, or note.
Art shifts from images to concepts.

The era of “hand-drawing IP illustrations to get hired” is over.
Studios now need people who can prompt, edit, and direct visuals.
If you want to work in 2D illustration, learn prompt design and art direction, not just drawing.

AI isn’t “taking artists’ jobs.”
The market itself was built for AI efficiency — mass production, uniform style, fast delivery.
That system simply replaces cheap labor with prompt engineers and visual designers.

The impact of AI on the design industry may reveal its true purpose. Grief taught me to focus on what truly matters. #AI #DesignIndustry https://uxdesign.cc/what-grief-can-teach-us-about-the-future-of-design-8d846c873335?source=rss----138adf9c44c---4

The age of AI has killed the traditional designer portfolio. Recruiters now rely on algorithms instead of clicking links. Real hiring decisions are made on platforms like LinkedIn and X. #AIRevolution #DesignIndustry https://webdesignerdepot.com/forget-design-portfolios-heres-how-designers-actually…
Forget Design Portfolios: Here’s How Designers ACTUALLY Get Hired in 2025
The designer portfolio is dead—and AI killed it. Recruiters don’t click your link, algorithms flatten your work into bullet points, and the real hiring decisions happen on LinkedIn, X, and in community feeds.

No design is neutral. If you're in the room, you're shaping the future-be sure you can stand behind what you create.
