If AI Can Do Anything in Seconds, Why Hire Designers at All?
AI can do almost anything in seconds — so what are we really paying humans for? This post breaks down the real value of expert judgment, context, and accountability in a world of machine-speed execution.
This one’s wild! and honestly, I agree. I don’t pay for stuff AI can already do for me. It’s faster, cheaper, always on. Why complicate it?
What Are We Really Paying For Nowadays?
Are we paying for professional guidance?
Sometimes, we just want someone who’s lived a little. Someone who gets where we’re coming from, not just tries to calculate it.
Just a small nudge.
A sense-check.
A gut call.
You can’t automate zooming out. Or adjusting when things shift. Or holding the thread when tests change timelines. That’s not just execution. That’s decision-making. And I’m not sure we can automate that.
AI gives us piles of answers.
But only humans can tell which one to trust, and why.
In some fields (like medicine, law, engineering, etc.) It’s not optional. It’s not a “nice-to-have.” It’s a duty.
My Take
Avoid Letting AI Lead The Pace.
AI is a partner, a great assistant.
But creating something truly professional still takes people who know their stuff.
“AI doesn’t have consciousness, intent, or accountability — humans do.
