Now, by one founder's count, roughly 80% of its biggest conference is AI talks. So is Config still worth going to?\n\nIn this episode, Marcello and Symon preview Figma Config 2025 on the flight out, before they've seen a single talk. They get into what changes when a design conference belongs to a publicly traded company, why \"AI, AI, AI\" is starting to feel exhausting, and what they're actually hoping to see: real workflow use cases, not the same demos. They also run an experiment, rating the conference now based on expectations, then again in a follow-up once they're back.\n\nA two-part Config preview and follow-up. This is part one."}
