Key Takeaways
What the community is saying — both sides
Supporting
1
Automation shifts the edge to human skills machines can’t copy
users note when obvious tasks are automated the valuable work becomes the subtle play (bet sizing/cover play analogy).
2
Huge productivity gains
features like expand, erase and isolate “cut editing time in half” and speed up design flows across FigJam, Buzz and Slides.
3
Vectorize quietly compresses design→implementation
removing manual SVG export yields cleaner assets and fewer sync meetings with backend devs.
4
Presentation fixes matter
“Expand image” eliminates awkward borders and stretched aspect ratios, making Slides decks easier to build.
5
Small friction removals win
tools that remove a single annoying step repeated dozens of times daily are more valuable than flashy demos.
6
Less app‑hopping, fewer plugins
doing vector cleanup and edits inside Figma removes the painful tool-switching for tiny edits.
7
Strong positive demand
many replies express excitement, gratitude and immediate intent to adopt (“so stoked,” “trying this out immediately,” “been waiting”).
8
Users want quick onboarding
folks ask for tips on erase and vectorize features, signaling a need for short how‑tos or in‑app guidance.
9
Global interest
non‑English replies show the rollout resonates across regions and languages.
Opposing
1
"AI will replace designers"
Replies argue the feature lets people skip learning core skills and devalues professional designers ("RIP graphic designers," "my grandma could do this").
2
"It's limited and crude"
Critics point to obvious failure modes (can't draw hands), call the tech lazy, and lament wasted art degrees.
3
"Fix product, not AI"
Several users want Figma to prioritize prototype animations and core features over new AI additions.
4
"Leadership is to blame"
Some link the AI push to falling share price and accuse management (Dylan) of steering the company toward ruin.
5
"This isn't real AI"
A strand of replies rejects the labeling, calling the announcement marketing spin rather than genuine intelligence.
6
"Thread being hijacked by hate"
One reply uses the conversation to push an Islamophobic political demand ("abolish Muslim MPs"), showing some commenters are injecting unrelated extremist views.

I tools are absolute game changers Ngl! I’ve been using the expand, erase and isolate haven’t really used vectorize features since they launched in Design/Draw and they’ve cut my editing time in half. So stoked to see them roll out to FigJam, Buzz, and Slides now the real-t

For sure, the "Expand image" feature is a game-changer for presentations. No more awkward white borders or stretched aspect ratios while creating Slides decks.

RIP graphic designers, 2024. Just another excuse for folks to skip learning skills. My grandma could do this now, easy.
