DALL-E 2 Exclusive : Text-to-Image AI – The End of the Graphic Design As We Know It?

 

On April 6, 2022, Open AI released the image “An Astronaut Riding a Horse” on Instagram (see Figure 1) and threw open the whole debate about whether artificial intelligence (AI) is about to make graphic design a dying art. According to Open AI, “DALL-E 2 can make realistic edits to existing images from a natural language caption. It can add and remove elements while taking shadows, reflections, and textures into account.” DALL-E 2 can produce images just from the text and image prompts it receives. As Open AI puts it, DALL-E 2 understands the association between images and the text we use to describe them by utilizing ‘diffusion,’ a method that begins with a pattern of random dots and gradually alters that pattern to create a recognizable image when it identifies specific aspects of that image. Graphic designers should be concerned. Text-to-Image AI opens up a world of imagination to anyone with access to DALL-E 2 or many of the other text-to-image generators popping up on the internet, like MidJourney, which I recently used to give me ideas for a book cover for my upcoming novel.
