Artificial intelligence has changed the economics of UX design.
With tools like Figma Make, Copilot, and increasingly capable design assistants, teams can generate layouts, components, flows, and interactive prototypes in a fraction of the time it once took. Work that previously required days can now be accomplished in hours—or even minutes.
