graphic design can’t be obsolete, but graphic designers can become so. my career started well before computers became the viable tool for the job. and i have seen many people who did not have the training or experience sit down at the computer and bang stuff out. were the results outstanding? not really. but they were serviceable. and many clients (especially budget-conscious ones) will take serviceable if its at the right price. i now have clients who send me completely mocked up layouts and just ask for it to be tightened up for production. is the design good? no. is it quick and cheap? yes. AI will certainly be able to do that.
