Creative professionals fear job loss from rising AI

Creative professionals are expressing concerns about the impact of artificial intelligence on their jobs. Photographers, translators, and illustrators report significant declines in work due to AI tools that produce cheaper and faster results, often with lower quality. Oliver Fiegel, a photographer, has struggled to earn a living and is considering a career change. Similarly, translator Karl Kerner feels his work has diminished drastically, while freelance illustrator Jenny Turner has seen a sharp drop in commissions due to AI-generated images. In contrast, some workers, like GP Alexander Calvey, find AI beneficial, improving efficiency and patient care. University researcher Paul uses AI for research assistance but worries about data privacy and corporate control over technology.
