Really enjoyed this post by @gerireid.com

It felt accurate for what I've experienced from designers coming to me with specs written by AI.

Designers may learn what they should include, but the specs tend to lack the contextual awareness or accuracy required.

Can AI write accessibility specs?
I wrote a prompt to help me write accessibility specs for components. Then had an existential crisis.

using cursor to ship lots of fun interactions to my website:

1. the motto marquee in the footer that updates when you click on it
2. the photo gallery that updates every time you visit
3. the hero text that updates to include my name after a few seconds

this from @basedash.bsky.social was really interesting

as a power Descript user I respectfully disagree - AI totally is the product (transcript-based editing!) it's just so invisible that you don't even realise

(they ofc also have the slapped on AI bot too)
