It’s over. I’m quitting design.
A client of mine just created a logo with Fable 5, and the result left me speechless.
It understood the brand story, values, audience, strategy, and turned all of it into a smart, minimal symbol. A genuinely brilliant concept. The kind of idea that captures everything at once. Something I honestly don’t think I would have come up with myself.
And it didn’t just nail the idea. It executed the design pixel-perfectly.
So I raise the white flag.
My skepticism about AI’s ability to do great design is officially gone.
There, I said it:
AI beat me at design.
Now that AI finally took my job, I can peacefully quit and dedicate my life to studying the only thing it may never achieve: human consciousness and the pathways to God.
Good luck everyone.
Ambitious people are my type. I can’t even hide it, once you start talking about doing impossible work, the kind of talk that inspires greatness, you have my allegiance till the wheels fall off.
We may fail (woefully) but we will never be guilty of not trying.
For people who learned by copying to build competence, we are often too quick to claim originality or to accuse others of copying our work.
This obsession with ownership overlooks how most of us have improved through imitation. We stood on the shoulders of patterns, systems, and people who came before us.
We should refrain from reflexive outrage, except in the rare case where a genuinely unique design is copied wholesale without credit and passed off as original. That’s a different conversation.
But resemblance alone is not theft.
