Enterprise 'AI workflow' hype isn't your workflow

Autodesk is rolling its Assistant across Fusion and its design/manufacturing portfolio, and NVIDIA is pushing generative design for engineering teams exploring thousands of variants at once ([Autodesk News](https://adsknews.autodesk.com/en/news/design-manufacturing-autodesk-assistant), [NVIDIA Technical Blog](https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/transforming-product-design-workflows-in-manufacturing-with-generative-ai)). This is genuinely happening, but it's engineering/manufacturing generative design — parametric CAD variants, not UI/UX. If you're a junior product/UX designer on Figma and Penpot, this isn't your immediate world, and there's no evidence yet it's reshaping UK product design hiring. The honest coaching take: notice the momentum exists in adjacent fields, but don't chase every 'AI workflow' headline as if it applies to your job today.
