And none of these magazines or whatever will ever lower their price. Major savings, but only for our shareholders!

I know quite a few fashion brands are quietly switching to AI. As in scrapping whole departments of people who deal with production. Waiting for the push back from consumers but something makes me think this is just going to be the new normal for a while. It’s looking pretty grim for anyone working in the industry.

Let’s be honest, having your picture taken wasn’t exactly a high skill job. These people could be doing better things for society.

I remember the same thing when they replaced they dark room, light tables, plate makers, and eventually the printers and went digital. They said the same thing back then. I was one of the last ink and print and manual design and hand drawn artist left in our company.
But, oh well. Things change. This is what computers do.
From what I gather during the discussion about Vogue, is people are realizing that AI isn’t the problem, it is the fact that there aren’t even any places that actually sell anything in person anymore. It either cheap walmart/target garbage, or you have to try things on via delivery. Vogue going AI means those patterns, textures, and designs don’t even really exist. So whats to even try on anymore?
