🧠 Design systems are the control plane for AI UI

AI-assisted development allows for rapid frontend code generation for various UI elements. However, this speed risks creating massive inconsistencies across a product if components aren't standardized. A design system steps in to act as the control plane, guiding how AI builds interfaces and what patterns are allowed. This system must contain more than just components; it needs to house rules on behavior and accessibility. By providing these shared rules, the design system gives AI safer, consistent defaults for development.
