    "AI" word is unneeded. The company announced it will inspect and use your private content from a service you paid for.

    Well well well, it didn't take too long to get those slimy defaults in.

    > Note: Prior to Config 2024, we had one setting that managed AI features called Figma and FigJam AI features. For any team and organizations who have this setting disabled as of June 26, 2024, Figma will honor the setting and turn off AI feature access and content training by default.

    I don't get it. When they will trun on AI features for me will they immediately suck up all my data before I manage to turn those defaults off or will there be any confirmation/popup before I fully onboard with the change. I hope GDPR covers cases like this one.

    EDIT: answer is in FAQ "Figma won’t begin training on content for accounts with the Content training toggle on until August 15, 2024."
