It kicked off at Adobeย ๐— ๐—”๐—ซ ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฑ: Firefly Boards unleashed a node-based AI canvas that trains custom models on the flyโ€”mood boards, concepts, social assets, all in one collaborative blast. My Figma side-hustles for brand systems? Obliterated.


Figmaย clapped back the next dayโ€”acquiring Weavy, rebranding it ๐—™๐—ถ๐—ด๐—บ๐—ฎ ๐—ช๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ. Aggregate any AI model, branch outputs, remix like a pro, refine with surgical tools. From UI to VFX, itโ€™s a full-spectrum takeover.


Then Canvaย swung in with velvet knuckles: Affinity Canvas Incโ€™s pro suite (Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign killers) fused into one app, free forever. No subscriptions. Buy once, own it. Seamless Canva polish on top.


At the moment, every narrative is linked to AI in one way or another. Enough already! Crypto taught us: nobody cares how the sausage is madeโ€”only that itโ€™s delicious. Same here: โ€œWith this, you nail briefs in half the time.โ€ Done, right? Exceptโ€ฆ โ€œ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—บ๐—บ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—น๐˜† ๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—ณ๐—ฒโ€ was Adobe MAXโ€™s mantra. We do need this. Gen-AI gigs are flooding in, but IP and copyright clarity? Still a minefield.

If you're not yet versed in these warriors: ๐—ช๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐˜ƒ๐˜† (now Figma Weave) is your AI aggregator extraordinaire, node-linking models for bespoke brilliance.


๐—”๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜๐˜†? The subscription slayerโ€”buy once, own eternally, crafting with surgical flair minus the lease.


The boardโ€™s so crowded now I canโ€™t see the battle lines in this melee. Most of us wonโ€™t switchโ€”weโ€™ll hunker down in the territories we already know and love. But for the bold or the frustrated, alliances will switch?


New empires await. Which flag are you planting? Drop it below. ๐Ÿš€
