What can ai do in creative fields? As I learn how to train my neural network to be creative, I talk to Openai’s neural network GTP-2 and test its knowledge and thoughts about design. Here’s what it had to say.

Bryan Talbot: What is the worst thing you could do in graphic design?

The worst thing you could do in graphic design is be more interested in making your client look good than producing good stuff. You should be interested in making the client look good. I know it can seem strange to say that and can be hard to picture in your mind, especially for people who are used to thinking of work as strictly a process of creation. But remember, it’s not just the result that counts.

There are tons of things a client might pay you for that do not directly contribute to your success in the work you do for them. Just because you made a “good-looking” logo doesn’t mean that’s what made your client smile. What you need to remember is that all your clients look good with your logo.
