Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

AI has fundamentally broken the traditional design agency model by enabling cheap, fast, and high-quality work simultaneously for the first time.

Traditional agencies that ignore AI will become irrelevant as designers who leverage AI can deliver faster results at more accessible price points.
