May be because "change this" is vague and more of a broad function and may need more clarifications. Users may have more clearer commands, like "cancel this", "I don't like this, provide an alternative" or "can you go back one step?" etc. User can just speak those requests out loud since device is listening.

It has a dark mode and a separate mode to hide chrome and fluff called "zen mode". Yay!

I think on the contrary, Microsoft may look into it as another AI driven or AI enabled product that can deliver UIs on the fly, and hence can attract creative crowd towards them. TBH, possibilities are limitless.
gigglesupstairs··on Figma and Adobe abandon proposed merger
Hmm. May be they see Penpot and learn something from it.
gigglesupstairs··on Figma and Adobe abandon proposed merger
They will be forced to now, isn't it? I am sure they wouldn't want to start from scratch. But have to admit, XD was nothing as compared to Figma right now.
