WILL FIGMA BECOME AN AWKWARD MIDDLE GROUND?

Designers who can code are more likely to sketch out their ideas than use Figma. AI will make this workflow more accessible to those who can't code. This will cause Figma to fall into an awkward middle ground. Figma has its users because it takes most people too long to code their designs - AI can turn wireframes into frontend code, extrapolate design systems, and create visuals from screenshots and mood boards. This may cause designers to skip using tools like Figma on the road to shipping software.

IT'S OFFICIAL: INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC COMMITTEE VOTES TO CONFIRM THE FIRST OLYMPIC ESPORTS GAMES WILL HAPPEN IN 2025, EVEN IF THEY DON'T KNOW THE GAMES YET

The first-ever Olympic Esports Games will be held in 2025. The games are planned for an initial run of 12 years, with events held regularly. They will remain distinct from the Olympic Games in both financing and organization. The International Olympic Committee will now begin work on selecting a host city, venues, dates, and games for the event.

THE AI JOB INTERVIEWER WILL SEE YOU NOW

AI job interviews have grown in popularity. The industry is still small and the jobs affected are often large-scale roles where companies need to sift through thousands of applicants at once. Companies in favor of the practice claim that it is less biased as the systems assess candidates on merit without prejudice or mood affecting the decision. Critics say that bias can creep in through the training data. Some candidates are turning to AI themselves - entrepreneurs are now peddling AI services to help people answer interview questions in real time.
