Is AI going to take designers jobs?
Iβve watched this debate run in circles on LinkedIn for six months. Now hereβs a funny twist: Anthropic is closing the standalone Claude Design site on December 14 and folding it into Claudeβs Artifacts. Even the AI companies keep rethinking how this should work π
Hereβs what I believe: good design was never just about producing visuals. Itβs taste, empathy, and a hundred small decisions that someone has to own. A prompt canβt make those for you.
I use AI every day. It handles the repetitive work and saves me hours. But the thinking, the direction, and the final touch stay with me.
"AI made it, so itβs doneβ is not how good design happens.
AI-powered, not AI-dependent. π―
Designers, be proud of what you bring. The tools will keep changing. Human creativity still matters.
