the delta: what moves your picture

#1 Directing an AI image/layout tool against a real client brief, then checking the output against the client's actual constraints before it's presented as a concept

In BFA in Graphic Design's own task ledger, Brand Designer's "Confer with clients to discuss and determine layout design" rates augmented and Graphic Designer's "Determining layout, type, and composition and creating design concepts from a…" rates augmented; all 3 matched rows here rate augmented. Checking a concept against the client's real constraints is what keeps a design worth presenting. first step: NASA Brand Center · free · ~12 min

#2 Using AI image generation tools for drafts, then checking licensing and usage rights before anything ships to a client

Among BFA in Graphic Design's matched ledger rows, Brand Designer's "Use computer software to generate new images" rates augmented and Graphic Designer's "Using computer software to generate new images" rates augmented; all 2 matched rows here rate augmented. Checking the actual usage rights before a generated image ships is what keeps a deliverable safe to use. first step: U.S. Copyright Office: Copyright Registration Guidance: Works Containing AI-Generated Material · free · ~15 min

#3 Using AI to sort and tag a growing image archive fast, while personally verifying rights and version before reusing anything from it

Looking at the roles BFA in Graphic Design feeds into, Brand Designer's "Review final layouts and suggest improvements, as needed" rates augmented; all 2 matched rows here rate augmented. Confirming rights and the final version before reuse is what keeps an image archive safe to draw from. first step: Google Workspace Learning Center: Organize files with folders in Drive · free · ~10 min

* THE HONESTY BOX
“not cooked” ≠ “nothing changes.” 20 of your 29 charted tasks already run with AI in the loop, and 3 tasks have no source at all: marked unlisted, not estimated. this slip shows only what we could source; where studies disagree, we print both. nobody can promise outcomes; anyone who does is selling something.

Task-level AI evidence on this page is largely US-scoped research; local pay and market context differ.
