100%. I know graphic designers who used to outsource designs to Fiverr who are now just using Midjourney. Faster and cheaper.
Also, large part of what used to be done with stock images. No need to search for the perfect stock image when you can just create it.
- latexr 3y ago> I know graphic designers who used to outsource designs to Fiverr who are now just using Midjourney. You know graphic designers who instead of designing would pay someone else to do it? That sounds like a cook who serves food bought from another restaurant or a carpenter who sells furniture bought from a store. Maybe there’s detail missing from your explanation (perhaps you meant they outsource illustrations?), but if you’re paying someone else to do the core of your job can you still stay that’s your profession instead of being a middleman?

- epups 3y agoMaybe the better analogy is a chef who has several cooks in different stations.
- fnands 3y agoGraphic designers don't often don't create every little thing that goes into what they do, and often don't do their own illustrations (there are exceptions, but this is usually done by dedicated illustrators). Exact example I was thinking of: graphic designer does social media post for BigCorp, let's say Christmas themed. They're going to get an illustration from somewhere, do a bit of photoshop, add some text over the top, and then post it to social media (oversimplified, I know). Especially for a small shop where they don't have full time illustrators a lot of the illustration work gets outsourced. These days, some of it gets outsourced to Midjourney.
