DESIGN X AI: PROVING WHAT'S POSSIBLE

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

A working AI-powered proof of concept was created in one hour using Cursor and Figma MCP after stakeholders doubted the technical feasibility of a brand expression feature idea. The prototype automatically extracts brand colors from any website, converts low-quality logos into crisp SVG vectors, and previews different color combinations for brands. It shows how modern design leaders must be hands-on with AI tools and technical building to lead teams and collaborate with engineering effectively.
