Anthropic’s Claude artificial intelligence models had “elevated errors” on Monday, as the app held its spot as the most popular free app on Apple ’s App Store. On Friday, President Donald Trump ordered every U.S. government agency to “immediately cease” using Anthropic’s technology. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced on X shortly after that the Pentagon would be labeling the company a “supply-chain risk to national security.”

Figma is partnering with Anthropic and launching a feature called “Code to Canvas” that converts code generated in artificial intelligence tools like Claude Code into fully editable designs inside Figma. The move reflects a broader bet that agentic coding tools like Claude Code haven’t eliminated the need for design, and made it more essential. But the risk is that Figma is building a better on-ramp to a highway it no longer controls.
