Boaz Zemer, a commentator on the design industry, asserts that the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has initiated a revolution in the field, presenting new opportunities, particularly for junior designers. He suggests that this period is characterized by the removal of barriers and the opening of new possibilities within the industry.
Zemer highlights a significant shift, noting that after 21 years, he was surprised to be accepted into a new role, finding the work "incredibly interesting." He also contrasts the resilience of local shops with the struggles of shopping malls in a specific, unnamed city, suggesting that the former have successfully navigated economic challenges.
Regarding career entry, Zemer points out that aspiring professionals in design now need to build websites using cloud code to be considered for employment. He also touches upon a significant financial development: a 34 million shekel "tip" (likely a settlement or bonus) for Wolt delivery couriers, who will remain independent contractors but receive improved conditions.
