Anthropic launched a new enterprise agents program featuring pre-built plug-ins for finance, engineering, and design tasks that companies can deploy through their Claude AI system. The program includes stock plug-ins for departments such as finance, legal, and HR, along with enterprise connectors for Gmail, DocuSign, and Clay, allowing agents to pull data directly from linked systems. This represents Anthropic's most aggressive push to integrate AI agents into everyday workplaces and poses a significant threat to existing SaaS products performing similar functions.

Apple is reportedly releasing its first touchscreen Mac later this year with the OLED-equipped M6 MacBook Pro, featuring a smaller hole-punch camera cutout enhanced by a Dynamic Island-style interface and a redesigned macOS that dynamically adapts between touch and traditional input, and offering context-sensitive menus, enlarged touch-friendly controls, and iOS-like gestures such as fast scrolling and pinch-to-zoom. However, touch will complement rather than replace the keyboard and trackpad. The launch is expected around October or November after the upcoming M5 Pro and M5 Max updates.

Adobe has added a new AI feature called Quick Cut to the video editor in Firefly that automatically assembles a first draft by trimming footage, arranging takes, and inserting B-roll transitions based on natural language prompts. Users can control pacing, aspect ratio, and apply the tool to entire projects or selected clips, while still refining transitions and edits manually to complete the final version. The update builds on Adobe's recent push into prompt-based and timeline-driven video editing, reinforcing its focus on faster turnaround times for creators and marketers.

There are five standout types of designers, each valuable in different contexts: the commercial chameleon, who adapts seamlessly to any style or client; the execution star, who delivers precise, reliable work when given clear direction; the beautiful visionary, who generates bold, original concepts but struggles with consistency and structure; the system architect, who brings order and functional clarity through strong structural thinking; and the anthropologist storyteller, who excels at cultural insight and early-stage research but not technical execution. Most designers embody a mix of these traits, and their strengths may shift over the course of a career.

AI is fundamentally reshaping product design by changing processes and bottlenecks rather than simply replacing jobs, shifting value away from pixel-level execution toward taste, judgment, and orchestration. As engineering and other “invisible” work become easier to automate, the real constraints become human evaluation and decision-making, with designers increasingly working directly in code through machine-readable design systems, enabling smaller, empowered teams to move faster and giving those who can effectively direct AI workflows far greater leverage than those relying on traditional mockup-to-handoff models.

The tech industry often confuses volume and speed with value, celebrating “code by the pound” and 10x productivity even though high output doesn't necessarily translate into meaningful impact. While incremental improvements matter, real significance comes from deciding what's worth building in the first place, and the current arms race around speed and tooling risks prioritizing quantity over thoughtful, customer-centered innovation.

AI design tools are revealing a craft crisis in design by exposing the technical literacy gap that has been undermining designers' strategic influence for over a decade. While tools like Figma's AI can generate designs from text prompts, they produce technically flawed outputs with serious accessibility violations and poor code quality that only experienced designers can identify and fix. The paradox is that AI democratization tools don't make design accessible to everyone, they only help people who already understand what constitutes good design and technical implementation.

Figma now lets teams capture working UIs built in Claude Code—whether from production, staging, or localhost—and instantly convert them into fully editable Figma frames, bridging fast code-based prototyping with collaborative canvas-based exploration. This enables side-by-side comparisons, easier iteration without rewriting code, earlier cross-functional decision-making, and shared direction, while also supporting a roundtrip workflow back into development via the Figma MCP server, creating a fluid loop between building in code and refining together in design.

Design isn't disappearing in the age of AI. In fact, it's more essential than ever. The panic comes from designers focusing on vague concepts like “taste” and “craft” or over-indexing on flashy prototypes instead of clearly articulating their real value. Designers thrive when they emphasize their unique mindset—human-centered, strategic, systems-aware, and comfortable with ambiguity—working at the intersection of business, user needs, and technology, and using AI to expand their toolkit and become more holistic makers rather than defending titles or fearing replacement.
