It's only a matter of time before it knocks out the lower end of the graphic industry, with logo builder sites etc... You'll always need the human element tho, whether it's designing the actual looks and templates the software will use or as basic as just needing a human to select the images. The thing that i have to get through clients heads all the time, and this applies to the grid linked above, is that 80% of the hard work of graphic design can be taken away with nice photography. If the client doesn't have nice photos then you ain't gonna get shiz like the grid homepage and example video. End of.
