Is AI a Tool or a Threat to Graphic Designers?

Hello Ecency Community! Today, I want to talk about a topic that every designer is thinking about: Artificial Intelligence (AI).
In my experience, AI tools like image upscalers and background removers are incredibly helpful for speeding up our workflow. However, many wonder if AI will eventually replace human creativity. Personally, I believe AI is a powerful assistant, but it can never replace the unique human touch and soul we put into our art. What are your thoughts? Do you use AI in your creative process?
