What this means
AIQ Score 80/100 — Critical. Most of this work is directly exposed to AI-driven change.
Commodity design production has collapsed in cost. Designers who direct brand and taste — and master AI tooling — capture the remaining value.
The AIQ Score measures how exposed your work is to AI-driven change. It is presented on a 0–100 scale, with higher scores indicating greater exposure.
This Graphic Designer score is the market average. Your own exposure depends on the tasks you actually do.
