According to Mr. Cheng, the growing array of AI tools has already become an invaluable asset to designers. However, no matter how advanced AI becomes, it can never fully replace human creativity and will always serve as an auxiliary tool rather than a substitute. Despite having over 20 years of experience in the industry, Mr. Cheng remains committed to the tradition of hand-drawn design.
