Good honest article. My first impression was this feature is for everyone other than designers. Have you ever met a designer who can’t put something down on a blank page?!
Design deserves better than Figma AI.

UX: We're seeing a lot of users leaving our service largely b/c competitor products are easier to use

Why aren’t we focusing AI on chores like laundry and dishes? Or mundane and redundant tasks?
Why are we having it focus on creating art & writing novels? This is what humans would prefer to do if they didn’t have to work.

Good copy focuses on the benefit.
Great copy focuses on the benefit and the cost of indecision.
To motivate a prospect, you need to paint the picture of the transformation and show them the cost of not solving the problem.
Learning about @OpenAI 's knowledge of UX through ChatGPT – not too bad for a machine, although it doesn't understand nuance.
Yep, it's scary but AI is already in our hands – if we want to have a chance of steering it's course we need to get involved now! openai.com/blog/chatgpt/

One major sin of social media is to pick things that seem logical but don’t hold up to scrutiny.
This tweet is a classic example
The direction of travel is easy to infer. The signs are two sided. People don’t enter travelators backwards.

Conservatives marketing team: We need a Netflix style film poster for this please. Designer: Of course, that makes total sense.

Replying to @stevesalihu
Are we really discussing if you should box the inputs or not? And we wonder why business folk don't take designers seriously! Also depends on the user base. Are they young, old, tech savvy, not tech savvy etc. Test with real users rather than asking other designers.
