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.
Hmm, no? Do go and try to make a flyer with any of the AI generators. I’m not saying it can’t happen one day, but the current tech is not there.
