The Human Touch vs. AI: Why Authenticity Matters
As brands increasingly utilize AI-generated content, a backlash from consumers is palpable. Last month, Guess faced significant criticism after featuring an AI model in a Vogue ad. This incident highlights a growing sentiment:
- Human Preference: Artists and clients value a personal touch, realizing AI struggles to capture the unique “vibe” of individual stories.
- Identifiable AI Flaws: Todd Van Linda, an illustrator, notes that AI art often lacks depth and can be easily recognized by telltale aesthetics.
- Frustration with AI: Many gig workers, like Harsh Kumar, find that clients who have opted for AI often return to human specialists due to the limitations of these tools.
AI may boost productivity, but it can’t replace the nuance that human creativity offers.
