It’s a clarifying conversation about taste, tools, and the future of design 👇 Some highlights: - Designing systems not screens - Loredana’s mental model for AI as a tool - Building your own tools and mini apps in Figma - What Figma is learning in their own UX research - What types of designers Figma is hiring right now - + a lot more ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/dive-club-6354915/episodes/loredana-crisan-figma-s-big-bets-for-the-future-of-ai-design/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/dive-club-6354915/loredana-crisan-figma-s-big-bets-for-the-future-of-ai-design.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
