Figma Temporarily Disables AI Feature Amid Accusations of Copying Apple's Weather App

Figma's CEO, Dylan Field, announced the temporary disabling of the company's AI design tool, "Make Design," following allegations that it replicated Apple’s Weather app design.

Andy Allen, founder of NotBoring Software, highlighted the issue on social media, accusing Figma of training its AI on existing app designs. Field denied these claims, stating that "Make Design" was not trained on Figma content, community files, or app designs.

The tool, designed to generate UI layouts from text prompts, was intended to expedite the design process for developers. However, the quality assurance process was criticized for being insufficient, leading to the tool’s problematic output.

Field acknowledged the oversight and committed to improving the QA process before reactivating the feature. Apple has not commented on the matter.

Anthropic Launches Funding Program for AI Benchmark Development

Anthropic has introduced a program to fund the creation of advanced benchmarks for evaluating AI models, including generative AI like its Claude. Announced on Monday, the initiative invites third-party organizations to apply for funding to develop tools that measure AI capabilities and impacts, with a focus on safety and societal implications. Anthropic aims to address the AI benchmarking problem, where existing benchmarks often fail to reflect real-world use and may not measure relevant aspects of modern AI.

The company seeks benchmarks that test AI models on tasks like cybersecurity, enhancing weapons of mass destruction, and spreading misinformation. They also plan to develop an early warning system for national security and defense risks. Additionally, the program will support research into AI’s potential in scientific study, multilingual communication, bias mitigation, and self-censorship of toxic content.

Anthropic envisions new platforms enabling experts to create evaluations and conduct large-scale model trials. The company has appointed a full-time coordinator for the program and may expand projects with scaling potential. While the effort aims to elevate AI safety, concerns exist about the alignment of funded evaluations with Anthropic's definitions of safe and risky AI, and the commercial ambitions driving the initiative.
