AI won't replace designers. But a designer that uses AI will replace a designer that doesn't use AI. You're missing the point on AI, you should think about it as a way to level up our profession, in a way we can focus on bigger pieces, and stop fumbling about with things that have been done forever. Bitching about AI is like bitching about design systems. We still bring the logic thinking to make sense of all the little pieces. AI is just another piece of the puzzle for a good designer. For a bad one, it'll be a threat.

With all due respect, this is a very reductive statement. AI utilities - such as generative fill, suggesting auto layouts, auto renaming layers are all very useful and welcome, this sort of thing should and will continue. If we look further to the video/post industry, Resolve has tools like magic mask, auto video transcription, vocal isolation and relighting. All powered by ML. These things are useful. What I’m talking about is wholesale generation of things being of limited use to professionals. It’s inherently derivative works and I think mostly useful to juniors - the exact people who are displaced by the coarse application of this technology. It can also open the door to greater interference from third parties and increased devaluation of the work of being a designer. Laypeople tend to think of coding as magic, because of a perceived high barrier to entry. “Its so complicated, I could never do that” But when it comes to design, because the output is easier to reason about and more immediately tangible, the layperson has all kinds of opinions and can easily hand wave away some of the intricacies. This isn’t new, you would have experienced this and it makes jobs harder and worse, more scarce as roles get merged and experts displaced. The “make design” and “make prototype” buttons hasten this. It’s of low utility to you or I, but hugely useful to a product manager. This will not be lost on Figma. That’s the point of the video, not “AI bad”

I get where you are coming from, i was thinking about it this way for the last year as well and have been trying many AI-Tools, used them for client work and saw clients starting to use AI-integrated tools as well. It's not a great picture - while the quality of output is rising, the perceived value to our customer is sinking - as they get into the mindset of "well, AI can solve all my problems, why would i pay my agency, i'll just use ChatGPT etc." This is adobes target audience. We are training AI by our input, by the great images and layouts we create with it - and the corporations providing us the tools will, the first second they are trained enough - offer services directly to our customers, that for "only 50 bucks a month can get a full blown AI-Agency". This is adobes move, they will train their algorithms on the work of the whole creative industry - and create a business model that creates similar output, but without the human costs associated. without all the licenses and copyrights. let them go to hell.

AI will replace many designers regardless of whether the generated designs are good or not. The people that push AI at the top level of companies don't care about your design craft, if it's a generic or unique design, etc. They only care about reducing costs to increase profits. GenAI is basically a spam generator and the number of people selling generic designs "created" by it will explode. As a result it'll devalue the work of all designers, replacing many developers without a doubt. This generic claim that "tech Y won't replace X" is endlessly repeated and so is the fact that it keeps happening. Very naive take.

If they had a video editing software developed the same time they started with Affinity Designer, they would have sustained on their own. Most video editors get the Adobe account for Première and the end up defaulting with Photoshop, so they won’t need Affinity Photo.

I have to disagree with you there. Writing a video editor is not trivial, and you’d be shocked at how entrenched video editors are. There’s things that just HAVE to work and to a very very high standard out the gate, otherwise you’d be relegated to the end of the market the likes of wondershare occupy. It’d be very tough for Serif to enter the professional video space. Adobe acquired both premiere and after effects and it took them years to get up to speed with the codebase. I doubt Serif had the skillset at the time(Not saying they couldn’t, but they’d have a far larger R&D overhead) or the financial resources for a gamble like that. And there’s zero guarantees they’d have made an inroads into the industry. It would make no sense and I can 100% guarantee the conversation happened inside the company and they decided against it. The reason Resolve has done so well is fourfold: - The colour part of resolve has been the industry standard grading solution in film for a long time. Most high end users don’t make as much use of the rest of the application. - Apart from fairlight. Fairlight was an incredibly popular pro audio suite before being acquired by Blackmagic. - Also apart from fusion (seeing a pattern here?) fusion was the second most popular compositing package before being acquired by BMD. - Resolve in both its free and paid iteration is a loss leader, and the editing parts of it are far behind the three stated above in terms of reasons most users outside of KZbinrs and hobbyists for buying Resolve. It’s growing, but it’s third/fourth in the pro editing space after Avid and premiere/fcp. To shift enough units in a market so heavily entrenched on the high end and well supported on the low end. No. It would make little to no difference.

The model I find fair is the "Maintenance Fee" which gives the user the ability to decide if they want to get updates or not. I use Camtasia and am happy to pay once a year to keep current on new versions given that the fee is reasonable. That being said, since I am not a graphic designer and only use the Affinity products when I absolutely have to for a video graphic, my need for a bunch of new features non-existent.
