Figma's AI toolbox is now a full-stack design utility, not a gimmick. This workshop runs 54 minutes and covers every AI feature currently embedded in the Figma canvas: background removal, image expansion, generative fill via 'Make Image', vectorization of raster assets, content rewriting and shortening, multi-language translation, and automated layer renaming. The session also touches MCP integration and AI-generated annotations, two features that signal where Figma is pushing its developer handoff story.
The reason to watch beyond the feature checklist: the workshop spends real time on 'Expand Image' and 'Edit Image' (collectively about 17 minutes of runtime), which are the tools most likely to change how designers handle placeholder and hero assets inside live layouts. The 'Duplicate and Replace' segment at 34:01 shows a workflow for scaling content variations that removes a category of repetitive manual work entirely. These are not demo tricks. They are repeatable production steps.
The community file is public on Figma's Community page, so you can run every exercise yourself. FigJam's summarize feature and Figma Slides presenter note generation also get coverage, confirming that AI is being rolled across the entire product suite, not just the core canvas. The Q and A at 54:04 is worth scrubbing to for unscripted answers about current limitations.
