artificial intelligence is becoming more and more integrated as part of the graphic design world
there is absolutely no denying that i've made a couple of videos on how
ai is potentially taking over and how designers can pivot to work alongside ai
but today i have five real life examples that show how without any doubt artificial
intelligence is moving ever deeper into our design world and sponsoring today's video is a long-term
friend of this channel and that is the awesome learning community skillshare now skillshare
is an online learning community where you can pick up new skills and implement them in impacting ways
to learn how you can get a one month free trial to skillshare stick around to the end of today's
video pixarts is an artificial intelligence service that allows its users to make imagery in
various different ways powered by ai essentially it's the lazy way or potentially the only way
for those who lack skill now i'm not telling you about pixar because of their imagery they
recently announced a new collection of typefaces created entirely through ai and machine learning
it currently has created about 30 ai generated fonts accessible to paid subscribers of their
premium plan having a browser with these creations it's quite obvious they are pretty low quality
this script font here with the flowers has issues with certain characters overlapping each other
as you can see on the e and the a as examples love certainly isn't in the air when i look at
the kerning and the quality of the lettering on this font in red sure it pretty much is
just a trial run by pixart and i'm sure they're going to look to perfect it from here onwards
the initial stages of any technology are almost always sketchy but what do you think about these
ai generated fonts in the future next what about this ai powered tool that apparently can analyze
your logo designs for uniqueness legibility color and contrast and then an overall score at the end
now i have doubts on whether or not a machine can work out the intricate details that determine the
logo's effectiveness or not but hey let's send the nike logo through this thing and see what happens
so we have a uniqueness score of 92 and that's really quite high
and it says here that the ai compares the design against over 1 million icons but i do agree with
the legibility caption found here the nike swoosh is very simple and very bold and having something
like that in a logo makes sure it's recognizable and also memorable now color contrast isn't much
of an important aspect in my honest opinion but colour psychology is but of course not always
and as this tool goes on to say in the overall section it isn't necessarily crucial to adhere to
every aspect in this list again this technology is likely in its infancy so expect more like this in
the near future so do watch this space next up a very controversial entity in the logo design world
fld or freelance logo design they have launched a logo design contest situation where if you are
a client you come along and you set what is called a prize amount then designers can submit
to their competition entries and hopefully win the prize them out this system could be a great
way to abuse designers time and slow down their careers any designer will likely be competing
against tens or hundreds of other people and often without any financial gain of their expended time
okay this might be fruitful for those just starting out to gain some kind of experience
but for those who want to take their career seriously this just isn't it chief
furthermore fld has partnered with logo ai which is one of the largest artificial intelligence logo
makers out there so we pretty much know where their morals stand somebody could technically
come along use this ai to pump into the competition hundreds if not thousands of
ai made logos and i have to ask myself what is this corner of the industry actually coming to
next up we're heading to japan a tokyo based company called media back office
has made an ai driven fully automated and highly precise background removal tool that's found at
imagematting.com now the aim is to help with e-commerce graphic design and photography
and it's one in many other background removal ai tools however they claim that tests show a
significant improvement in resulting quality when using imagematting.com for a catalog of
hundreds of products or portraits imagemating.com will save graphic pros hours of mind numbing work
well apparently here's a direct quote from one of their team other companies may design the right
algorithm however it can't be very precise without using real images or before and after background
removal it would take these tools years to close that precision gap they don't have the
legal access to the library of manually completed top quality jobs where the background was removed
and verified by trained humans so we see that now trained humans have been brought into the
mix along with ai so for now at least it isn't entirely artificial intelligence based photoshop
already has a pretty decent algorithm for its background detection and background removal and
this is only going to improve in the future and likely move to other aspects of the design process
imagebatting.com is also available as a ps extension so it would be interesting to test
that against photoshop and see how it compares over time lastly something is pretty funny to
try out for yourself here is an ai tool that has been made to generate inspirational posters
we've all seen these posters shared on social media for years and years but it looks like
this ai hasn't quite got the hang of it it depicts how random and lousy an algorithm can actually be
and i'm sure if this was actually somehow integrated with machine learning it could become
better at the task but for now it's pretty bad albeit funny and then also the mindfulness mode
just gets even funnier so yeah check that one out link down below what are your thoughts on ai and
the graphic design world and what do you think the future is going to look like now you might know
that i'm really a big fan of nice juicy motion graphics and also you might know that i'm a very
busy person with a very tight schedule but i've actually been using a sponsor of today's video
skillshare to improve my motion graphics skills and to kick off 2022 i decided to take a class
on kinetic typography in adobe after effects by phil evaner now you might ask why did i decide
to go with motion graphics well that's simply because i do think that the future of design or
graphic design in general is heavily going to be animated so i kind of want to pick up those skills
moving into the future with skillshare it's actually possible to take each individual
lesson in that class whenever you have free time your progress is saved as you move through
each individual lesson and also there are some resources in most of the classes to make use of
there are so many different subjects to make use of in skillshare and we have things like graphic
design animation ui ux design photography writing and so much more and if you are thinking of being
more productive in 2022 then you might want to take a look at this category here
and also you can see that each category is divided up into subcategories as well so the first 1000
