U.S. Microsoft announced on July 2 (local time) the establishment of a new organization, “Microsoft Frontier Company,” to support AI implementation by stationing AI engineers at client companies. The investment will be $2.5 billion (approximately ¥400 billion), with an organization of roughly 6,000 people centered on existing engineering divisions and FDE (Forward Deployed Engineering) teams. Microsoft Frontier Company will operate as an internal organizat

The company debuted a new feature called Figma Specs, which is a markdown editor that lets users define their design language in a simple way. The document can serve as a reference for teams and agents while designing in Figma. Specs can exist as a standalone file in Figma or can co-exist within the canvas. Apart from acting as a text editor, users can reference other Figma elements, such as elements on the canvas, and embed FigJam diagrams, code layers, a

Masad said the decision was made for a number of different reasons, including cost.
