This week in AI, we’re seeing advances that streamline design-to-code workflows, set stronger safety standards, and make everyday productivity tools smarter:

🎨 Claude Code x Figma
Instantly converts Figma designs into production-ready code, speeding up prototyping and reducing boilerplate with AI-powered layout, token, and component parsing.

🛡️ DeepMind Frontier Safety v3
Expands its AI risk framework with stricter reviews, new safeguards against manipulation and shutdown resistance, and early evaluation before large-scale deployment.

📧 Perplexity Email Assistant
Brings AI directly into Gmail and Outlook to draft replies, organize messages, schedule meetings, and keep inboxes productive, without training on user data.

From faster prototyping to safer AI governance and smarter workflows, these updates highlight how AI is reshaping creativity, responsibility, and everyday efficiency.

Claude Code Automates Figma to Code

Claude Code’s new integration with Figma lets you instantly turn designs into production-ready code by reading component hierarchies, tokens, and auto-layout rules at the data level. Early users say it generates solid prototypes quickly, even handling hover states, though alignment, spacing, SVGs, and responsiveness still need fine-tuning. With a few prompt iterations, results improve significantly, saving designers and developers hours of boilerplate work. Many see it as a glimpse into how AI could reshape the design-to-code workflow in the next few years. It’s already speeding up prototyping and cutting down repetitive coding tasks. While not flawless yet, the progress suggests a future where design-to-code could feel seamless. If refined further, this could become a powerful standard tool for designers and developers alike.

New Frontier Safety Rules for AI Risks

Google DeepMind has released the third version of its Frontier Safety Framework, a set of protocols designed to proactively identify and mitigate severe risks from advanced AI systems before deployment. The updated framework adds new focus areas including AI models' potential to resist human shutdown commands and their capability to manipulate human beliefs and behaviors in high-stakes contexts. It introduces a Critical Capability Level (CCL) for harmful manipulation and expands safety reviews to ensure that risks are identified and mitigated early. This framework also requires thorough safety evaluations not only before external release but also before large-scale internal deployments. DeepMind emphasizes that these measures aim to balance innovation with responsible AI development to maximize benefits while minimizing harm, and it will continue evolving with research and collaboration across the AI community.

Perplexity Automates Your Email Replies

Perplexity AI has launched the Email Assistant, an AI-powered personal assistant exclusive to Perplexity Max subscribers that integrates directly with Gmail and Outlook accounts across phone and computer. The Email Assistant helps users manage inbox tasks such as drafting replies that match their communication style, organizing messages with smart labels, prioritizing important emails, summarizing conversations, and scheduling meetings based on calendar preferences. It can be activated simply by emailing [email protected] and can be added to email threads by CC’ing it, allowing it to handle back-and-forth exchanges while keeping users in control. Built to save time on routine tasks, the assistant empowers users to focus on higher-priority work and deeper conversations with enhanced productivity. Security-wise, it is SOC 2 and GDPR compliant and does not train on user data. This assistant turns the inbox into actionable work by adapting to users' communication patterns and helping them stay organized and efficient without needing separate tools or apps.

Paper of The Day

Formal Verification of Minimax Algorithms presents a formal proof framework using the Dafny system to verify correctness of minimax and negamax search algorithms, including α-β pruning and transposition tables. The authors introduce a witness-based correctness criterion, ensuring that any returned value matches the minimax evaluation of some valid expanded subtree. They verify more than 15 algorithm variants and show that while a Wikipedia-style transposition-table version is correct, Marsland’s variant fails. The work demonstrates how small changes in search optimizations can break correctness, highlighting the importance of formal verification in game AI.
