I haven't seen good examples of that yet but I'm curious how push-button you can make this. Flyers, web design and UI design require the copy, layout, information hierarchy, colours, illustrations, branding etc. to be cohesive so it's a different problem space with way more constraints compared to generating a single image.
If getting the final design requires a lot of rounds of prompting and tweaks, busy people are going to outsource this still (in the hope the prompting and feedback needed to the person doing the work will be less).
That group will never be selling their own work as contemporary fine art but want that prestige, and the one way they had to make table scraps with that skillset is now gone.
A different person is doing their own flyer art with AI and adding words around it themselves, as evidence by my last months worth of fliers that have reached me. Promotion companies have always been up on trendy tools for differentiation.
I used to draw the flyers when my band played shows. People still went to the shows. If had iterated a few times with one of these models to draw the thing that I wanted to draw rather than deluding myself, and spent 5 minutes polishing it in photoshop, the product would have been orders of magnitude better imo.
Just in case anyone needed to see this spelled out.
The people making fliers have been replaced by AI prompting overnight.
The people doing contemporary fine art with their audience are unaffected.
