Now is as great a time as any to signal boost Penpot: <a href="https://penpot.app/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://penpot.app/</a><p>Open technology always wins, and it's only a matter of time until Adobe-Figma fades out of relevance.
Here is the email they sent for this, with some extra context:<p>"Earlier this year, we shared our view on AI at Figma [0] and the importance of being open with our community about our AI journey moving forward. Since then, we've been building practical, useful features for FigJam [1] and Figma, with more to come soon!<p>To power our new AI features, we're adding OpenAI, L.L.C. (“OpenAI”) as a subprocessor. Figma uses subprocessors, which are companies that process data on our behalf, to help provide our core Figma services to you.<p>What this means for you:
We will only send the information you provide when using AI features. We also have an agreement that prohibits OpenAI from using any Figma customer data for training purposes.<p>If you would like to opt out of our AI-powered features, learn more here [2]."<p>[0]: <a href="https://www.figma.com/blog/ai-the-next-chapter-in-design/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.figma.com/blog/ai-the-next-chapter-in-design/</a>

To me, that reads more like Figma is using OpenAI for functionality (which inevitably means they have to provide information for prompting) more than it reads they are letting OpenAI use Figma data to make their products better.
Figma bought [Diagram](<a href="https://diagram.com" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://diagram.com</a>) this year, so this is inevitable and unsurprising
If there's anything a chatbot is going to excel at, it's making Figmas, which in my experience and in the experience of everyone I know, is "lists."
