Fast prototypes make direction more important

The Story

Figma’s new essay makes a useful distinction: AI can make a clickable prototype quickly, but it does not answer whether the direction is right, worth building, or recognisably yours. ([figma.com](https://www.figma.com/blog/what-it-takes-to-build-great-products-now/?utm_source=openai))

The strongest point is the emphasis on choosing the fastest medium for each kind of change. Direct visual editing, prompting, and code each have different strengths; forcing everything through one interface creates friction and weaker decisions.

For Studio Wensday, this is a good operating principle: use AI to widen the option space, then use taste to narrow it. The last mile is where the work becomes a point of view.
