Is AI about to put calligraphers out of business? I put it to the test…and what I found might surprise you.
In this episode of Creative Business Real Talk, I share my honest reaction after testing a “calligraphy generator” inside ChatGPT, and why it shook me… initially.
I have a lot of students who send me questions about AI replacing calligraphy jobs,, and the question I hear constantly is, “Is it even worth starting a calligraphy business now?”.
Join me as I discuss the future of calligraphy, why staying present is the name of the game, and share with you the perspective of someone who’s been in the industry wayyyy longer than I have (like 35 years longer...).
Inside this episode:
(1:30) “Calligraphy is doomed!”... A brief history - A look back at how text has continuously evolved - from printing presses, to Procreate, to live brand activations
(4:17) Certainty is an illusion. Calligraphy services evolve - The dangerous myth of “certainty”, why it's impossible to achieve, and how flexibility can benefit you immensely
(9:21) The questions you should be asking yourself instead - Why you need to live in the present, not the distant future(15:23) The Calligraphy AI generator - the good, the bad, and how to manage the unknown
If you’re thinking about getting into calligraphy in an increasingly AI-dominated world, this episode is your reminder: tools evolve - but human connection and authenticity never go out of style.
🎧 Tune in to hear why flexibility, focus, and presence are the keys to thriving - always.
