Analysis of Current AI Resilience
Web & Digital Interface Dsgnr
Updated Quarterly • Last Update: 11/21/2025

State of Automation & Augmentation
Web design and interface work is already being helped by AI in some ways. For example, Figma (a design tool) now offers an AI feature that can generate a full website layout and CMS content from simple prompts [1]. In coding tasks, one study found generative AI can complete routine coding work (like auto-filling functions or writing code) much faster, essentially handling boilerplate so humans can focus on harder parts [2].
These examples show how AI tools can take over repetitive parts of web updates or page design, speeding up work without removing the need for a human designer.
Other routine tasks for web designers are already often automated. The Bureau of Labor Statistics notes webmasters “ensure websites operate correctly” and test for things like broken links [3]. Today, automated scripts and simple AI tools often do backups, run site tests, check for broken links, or even send automated email replies.
In fact, many website platforms (Squarespace, Wix, WordPress, etc.) are adding AI helpers so non-experts can update sites more easily [1]. Industry reports note a big jump in AI-related web design work (a 268% increase in design jobs involving AI tools) [4]. This suggests that while machines help with routine updates, human designers still guide the final look and content.

AI Adoption
AI is spreading into web design quickly in some cases, partly because the tools are ready and show clear benefits. Tools like AI site-builders and code assistants (e.g. GitHub Copilot) can double the speed of some tasks [2]. This makes businesses eager to try AI: one analysis found that creative fields like web design saw massive growth in AI use [4].
If AI can handle basic layout or content drafts, companies can focus people on more complex brainstorming.
At the same time, adoption can be slow for complex creative jobs. McKinsey reports that AI saves very little time on really hard tasks or for beginners [2]. Web designers still need to make aesthetic and user-experience decisions that AI can’t fully do.
Also, web design jobs are growing overall (BLS predicts faster-than-average growth for these roles [3]), so human experts remain in demand. In short, AI is a helpful assistant for routine web tasks, but creativity, judgment, and personal touches keep human designers important.
