From design to photography: How various creative tools are incorporating generative AI


Artificial intelligence is everywhere. Recent cover songs, résumés, web design, animation, and even voiceovers all have generative AI fingerprints. Creative industries are witnessing a rapid shift in process and production, while artists and creators have pushed beyond what was possible just a year ago.

And change shows no sign of slowing down.

While today's technology is evolving at a... blistering pace, driven by stronger computing power and datasets, it's also the direct result of years of slow and steady innovation. Take AI image generation, which dates back to the 1960s when an artist at the University of California at San Diego started developing software that used coding to draw art. Producing sophisticated and hyperrealistic images using AI wouldn't be possible without existing digital applications.

Consider Adobe Photoshop, which has enabled both professional and amateur graphic designers to create, edit, and finesse or modify image imperfections using the "smudge tools" and "healing brushes." Generative AI has both enhanced these tools and developed newer, more refined ways to modify images.

At the same time, generative AI has accelerated productivity while also democratizing access to creative tools that expedite workflows. Amateurs have the chance to create without specialized skills, and creators without coding experience to use AI-powered platforms to develop basic apps, reducing the barrier to entry for tech-related projects.

Meanwhile, existing applications and products are adopting and integrating generative models, enhancing their functionality, and expanding their user bases. By making high-quality image generation more accessible, standards and expectations will also be higher.

As innovation continues, it will impact not only how industry professionals work but also how everyday consumers -- writers, designers, and artists from across the spectrum -- express themselves.

Creatie.ai looked at news reports and company announcements to see how generative AI is changing creative tools.

  • the problem is that we always overfocus on making designers; that doesn't help but the clients overfocus on details so details and simplicity maters... alot  more

  • The customer is not impressed with your work, Its value for money.. so do a nice job that impresses the customer

  • You see faith, being a designer and a developer is very good because we get to understand and give a lot of technical ideas because we know, and that... is very good. But when it comes to our children, it's very good for us to do what they want. that creates a lot of trust among the two parties. But there is a time also that our citizens make wrong decisions on designs, so that is where we come in for advice, but also remember that the advice we give them should not also be so different from their interests.  more

  • Our perceptions differ,what you see as outdated the customer sees as something good,the consumer is always right

  • It depends, but at times it can be a practical interview. basing on what you know

  • home page. About you, your education background, then the projects you have worked on and the ones you are still working on, give some testimonials... from some of your clients. i think this will help you more
