  • Fiverr Replacing Graphic Designers with AI and WHY Real Design Still Wins!
    Fiverr just fired 30% of its staff and announced it’s becoming an “AI-first company.” On paper, it sounds innovative. In reality, it’s poetic justice. The platform that devalued design and turned creativity into a $5 commodity just found a faster, cheaper replacement of its own bargain basement graphic designers...artificial intelligence. This isn’t just about Fiverr. It’s the clearest proof yet that shortcuts, cheap clients, and race-to-the-bottom thinking always come back to bite.Here’s the uncomfortable truth: most graphic designers that helped build the monster, is now being replaced by it. By chasing low prices, skipping process, and trading craft for convenience, they became the very data that AI now feeds on. Meanwhile, the few designers who built real strategy, process, and brand value are standing strong and watching the collapse from the sidelines with popcorn.This week on The Angry Designer Podcast, we expose Fiverr’s AI-first announcement for what it really is: a desperate move wrapped in PR spin. We break down what it teaches every real designer about protecting their designs and their future in this AI fuel hungry environment. This isn’t just a takedown. It’s a wake-up call about how easily creative platforms can turn your work into their training data, and how to make sure that never happens to you.In this episode you'll discover- Why Fiverr’s collapse proves cheap design was never sustainable- The hidden fine print that lets companies like Fiverr and Adobe use your creative work for AI- How real designers can use AI to their advantage instead of becoming its next victimThis isn’t about Fiverr, it’s about the entire creative industry. Because if you think staying cheap, fast, and convenient is your competitive edge, you’re already designing your own extinction. The future doesn’t need more Fiverr designers. It needs thinkers, leaders, and creators who value the process as much as the product.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?

  • Graphic Design Careers Are Under Attack. Here’s How to Survive
    Graphic design is only projected to grow 3% over the next decade. AI is churning out logos in seconds. Bootcamps and Canva “designers” are flooding the industry. If you think that means graphic design is dead, you’re missing the bigger problem. The real threat isn’t AI or oversupply, it’s the way designers think about their future.Here’s the part no one wants to admit: future graphic designers may be walking straight into a dead career. Students are drowning in overpriced programs, bootcamps are peddling false promises, and grads are competing against millions of cheap overseas designers. Now clients are asking if AI can do it faster and cheaper — and most designers don’t even see it coming.This week on The Angry Designer Podcast, we tackle the uncomfortable question every designer is asking: Is graphic design still a good career choice in 2026? We break down the fear, the myths, and the cold hard truths every designer needs to hear right now.In this episode, you'll discover- Why a 3% growth rate doesn’t mean design is dying but actually good- How AI gives false confidence to amateurs and superpowers to real designers- The one mindset shift that separates decorators from problem solvers who actually get paidThis isn’t just about “graphic design” as a career path. It’s about you. Because if you don’t evolve, if you keep clinging to the old version of design, you won’t just lose jobs you’ll lose your career. The future doesn’t need more button-pushers. It needs thinkers who can adapt, strategize, and lead.Stay Angry our Friends –––––––––––Join Anger Management for Designers Newsletter at https://tinyurl.com/mr4bb4j3Want to see more?
