They're brilliant, frankly, work all hours and can write boilerplate code in their sleep. They're also a bit... literal. This new team member is an AI agent, and it's changing how we go from design to code. But here's the reality check as Figma's recent AI report ↗ found that while 68% of developers are using AI to write code, only 32% actually trust the output. The problem isn't the AI's ability to write code, it's the AI's ability to understand context.

There is a lot of buzz about AI's abilities and its limits, but one thing we all agree on: an AI tool is only as powerful as the prompts you give it. The better the prompt, the sharper the insight, the faster the solution, and the more time you reclaim for strategy and creativity. For event planners, this means AI can help uncover blind spots, summarize data, generate fresh ideas, and personalize experiences at scale.

UX designers frequently work in ambiguous spaces, most notably the discovery phase. We collaborate closely with product managers to identify new problems, understand users' goals and frustrations, and strategically develop solutions to address their needs. However, the best solutions aren't always straightforward, and with AI being embedded in every new product and feature, it makes things a bit more challenging. Just as we get comfortable using AI, something changes or evolves. This makes AI features unpredictable and difficult to document requirements for.
