From a teaching assistant in Mark Zuckerberg’s AI class to a roboticist turning industrial machines into lifelike creatures, this year’s Config speakers are redefining how we build and experience technology.

How we went from autocomplete to AI search and landed on a tool that’s changing the way designers find and use existing work.

To build AI search in Figma, we had to tackle a number of technical hurdles, including the challenge of generating and indexing billions of embeddings to power these features—while also keeping costs down.
