It may replace art (although that would be sad, it's part of the human culture) — but it will never replace designers.

Dalle-2 and Stable Diffusion are already more than capable of designing new things such as clothes and buildings.

I mean more product design. A biggest part of digital design is identifying user concerns and needs, that takes human intuition and emotion.

For now it does, but seven months ago custom artwork also took human intuition and emotion.

Don't assume you're safe just because a thing is currently impossible.

When we reach singularity, of course it will happen. That's a long ways off. You'd have to be able to think through decades of data that hasn't been collected yet.

What’s your definition of designer? Graphic design will be severely affected. You can already mask objects in Photoshop using AI for a while already, what used to take hours is now done in seconds. AI can now generate artworks in any artist’s visual style based on text input and spit out visuals that would take hours to produce in seconds (Check out Corridor Digital on YouTube on this subject). We are also seeing AI starting to take on video editing.

Ya graphic design is art. It's traditional role will probably be mostly automated.

You are getting downvoted but I agree. It takes different skills to understand "I want this" and then have an AI generate it, vs seeing what an AI generates and thinking "I want this"
