Claude Code just killed video editors.
Claude Code just killed graphic designers.
Claude Code just killed music producers.
Claude Code just killed software engineers.
Seriously, bro?
At this point, AI has "killed" every profession 50 times and somehow they're all still here.

Claude doesn't design for me. It handles the repetitive work that slows me down.
For this Framer project, I gave it my primary brand colors and a single prompt. It generated the supporting color system, organized the styles, and built out the variables structure automatically.
The strategy, decisions, and design direction still came from me. AI just took care of the tedious setup work that normally eats up 30–60 minutes.
That's where I think AI is most valuable: not replacing designers, but removing the small, repetitive tasks that get in the way of doing great work.
This is exactly the right mental model. Color system scaffolding, naming conventions, variable structure... that's 45 minutes of setup that doesn't require creative judgment. Saving that time for the decisions that actually matter is how AI in design should work.

SPOT THE BOT, a gallery game about telling human creativity from a machine's
The problem. AI can now create almost anything, and for designers that's not abstract. The fear is that taste, judgment, the human "tell" in a piece of work no longer counts for anything. So instead of arguing about it, we made a game out of it.
The idea. Everyone gets the same prompt ("give beige a personality," "what keeps you up at 3am"), the same fixed kit of pieces, and 30 seconds. So does an AI. Every tile lands on a gallery wall, and players vote: which one is the bot? Then comes the reveal: who fooled you, and who you fooled. The constraint is the whole point. When everyone has identical pieces, the only thing separating the tiles is taste, wit, and choice, the human stuff. Right now the bot fools 72% of players, and every round feeds that number: a live, accumulating measure of where human judgment still holds the line.
The build & workflow. Designed and built end to end in the Figma ecosystem: the editor, the real-time multiplayer rounds (MAKE, VOTE, REVEAL), and the MUSEUM of every player-made tile. The asset kits (risograph, torn paper, duct tape, liquid metal, and more) were generated with Weavy.ai.
It's recursive by design: a game about spotting machine-made art, built with the machine's own creative tools. The medium is the argument.
