EDINBURGH is covered in posters showcasing the thousands of Fringe shows taking place this month. Some of these, however, have not been made by humans. Several companies and performers are now advertising shows with posters that seem to be completely AI-generated, with human designers warning we may be looking at the “collapse” of their industry.
One of the comedians choosing to use AI rather than an artist is Raul Kohli. Kohli has several shows on this year, two of which are advertised using AI-generated posters – A History Comedy Show and A Comedy Magic Show for Kids.
