Is anyone using ai ? This should be one of the most talked about topics!
Many of our applications as designers will be obsolete.
Technical skills will become less of a barrier. The only barrier will be your imagination. If you can dream it, it shall be. -
I want AI to mow the lawn, shovel the snow, do the laundry and the dishes. Leave the creative stuff to humans.

Many people mention the threat but fail to consider the cost.
Most AI companies are leaning heavily towards AI as a utility like water or electricity. So expect it to be a monthly utility cost for homes/users.
Whereas I am in the same camp as Dave. AI should be used to tackle real world problems.
I do use it but mostly as a feedback solution or ideation.
I would say the vast majority using AI in the 3D visualisation space are people that have never modelled, textured or rendered.

If you mean "doing AI rendering and modeling", nope.
If you mean "using it in order to setup reminders on phone or read email for me".. nope.
If you mean "use it to code some specific plugin or automation which I can then use in order to do some manual work"... absolutely yes. -
Overall I'm cynical about AI but I have started using it for conceptual work and creating renderings fast which seems to garner greater interest with clients.
Most of it right now is not as advertised. Particularly with architecture. I have to put text input to create the rendering I want and right when I think I'm making headway it completely changes the design.
It's hard to control textures and materials. I went from doing some AI renderings -- on ReRenderAI -- and eventually used the same SU model to develop my own renderings. It's much easier to change colors and materials from there along with design elements.
I haven't used it in weeks. I have some success using Facebook ads to get work. It's hit and miss. Prolonged messenger chats that go nowhere. Many people literally think $900 for a set of plans is too expensive.
Everything is changing which is nothing new. From the days when I first started drafting in a land survey company. Hand drafting with technical pens on vellum. To reluctantly getting a computer and learning Autocad by way of a DOS command.
So I'm willing to use AI if and when the results work and look good and maybe get me more work or more ideas from the client. I'm still using my 20+ year old Autocad. I'm half way to 70 and have nowhere to go.
