What AI will do
- Resizing and adapting assets for different formats
- Generating initial visual concepts from briefs
- Creating template-based layouts
What keeps you human
- Understanding brand identity at a deep cultural level
- Collaborating with clients through iterative feedback
- Making aesthetic judgments that reflect human values
