So Goodbye Mr Designer

Richard Hayes' article discusses the transformative impact of new AI image generation tools, particularly ChatGPT 4o, on the creative and design industries.

Sorry, mate. You’ve had a good run. You charged us by the hour, made us wait a week for a logo tweak, and got weirdly emotional about font choices. But there’s a new tool in town, and it doesn’t need coffee breaks or inspiration boards.

Introducing the new image generation tool from ChatGPT 4o – where your visual ideas go from “just a thought” to “here you go” in seconds. It’s fast, intuitive, and yes – interactive. No need to email back and forth. No “design rounds.” Just type what you want, and watch it appear.

ChatGPT has just changed the game

Let’s not beat around the AI-generated bush – this new image generation tool is a game changer. It’s not just about spitting out pretty pictures anymore. We’re talking real creative control. Want to edit something? Done. Need the text to match your product name? Easy. Want five variations with slightly more splash and a bolder font? It’ll have them ready before your designer finishes their oat flat white.

You can define the vibe, control the lighting, and direct the scene like you’re running a photo shoot, without ever leaving your browser. This isn’t just AI art – it’s brand creation, product development, content strategy, and design mockup, all rolled into one.
