While generative AI has been around for some time now, its recent advancements have made it a valuable tool for various stages of the design process. For instance, AI can generate design suggestions, reduce the time of certain tasks like resizing images or adjusting color palettes, layout optimization, and typography choices.
Here are a few AI tools that can help assist your design workflow:
- Photoshop
Photoshop’s Generative Fill and Generative Expand features have improved tasks like extending images or fixing and replacing parts of an image, allowing designers to save time compared to additional editing or searching for a new photo.
- Adobe Neural Filters
Adobe’s Neural Filter Super Zoom is another exciting feature in Photoshop that enlarges small images by adding pixels, which is essential when larger, print-quality images aren’t available. It allows you to enhance image size without compromising quality.
- ChatGPT
ChatGPT can function as a creative partner by assisting with brainstorming, color selection, font pairing, and troubleshooting design issues. Whether you’re looking for fresh concepts or refining existing ideas, ChatGPT is an invaluable resource.
- AI: Tools, Not Replacements
It’s important to understand that AI is not a substitute for human creativity or design expertise. Integrating AI into your workflow as a partner, not a replacement, allows you to refine your design work while remaining true to your design vision and creative instincts.
