We’ve all seen the headlines: AI is coming for your job. But the truth is, AI isn’t replacing designers—it’s raising the floor and ceiling of what we can do. Last year at Config, Figma’s CEO shared a vision of the future where more people become designers, and more designers step into code. Now, with tools like Bolt and V0, that vision is rapidly becoming reality.
In this talk, Ahmed and Ben share practical, real-world ways AI is helping designers work smarter, faster, and with more creative confidence. You’ll see how AI is not the end of our craft—it’s the evolution of it. Let’s stop chasing AI, and start using it to lead.
