There's a lot of data out there about AI adoption rates but very little about the friction — the moments where AI takes your work somewhere you didn't want it to go, or where you feel like you've lost the wheel.

I'm doing research specifically on creative control vs. AI creativity — where the two conflict and what designers actually want from these tools. Not what vendors are telling us we want.

If you've got 5 minutes, I'd really appreciate your honest answers:

Hey r/MotionDesign — doing some research on how designers are using AI tools today, specifically around creative control and where the pain points actually are (not the marketing version).

Covers: which tools you're using, where in your workflow, how much control you feel you have, and — most importantly — what you'd change if you could.

~5 minutes, fully anonymous. Will share the findings back to this community once I've got enough responses. Your voice actually shapes where this research goes.

Figma's been rolling out AI fast. Curious how designers are actually integrating it — or not — and where it's causing more friction than it's saving.

Short anonymous survey on AI usage and pain points in design workflows:

~5 minutes. I'll share the aggregated findings back to this community once it's done.

Firefly, Generative Fill, AI in Illustrator — Adobe's been shipping a lot of AI features. Curious how people are actually using them day to day and, more honestly, what's not working.

Hi, I'm an intern at Adobe, and I'm putting together research on the gap between creative control and AI output — that feeling where the tool does something, just not what you wanted.
