Hi Omar! Agreed that the AI features are a very helpful addition. I am glad that it seems Figma listened to a lot of the feedback from the 1st beta release of UI3 and a few small things have already been improved quickly like the floating panels. I was learning to adjust to some of those little things, but it's so much better now. They are listening to users!
This recently became a part of the paid plans - it was free in beta for a short period while they were working out issues, but they improved on things and now it is available on the paid plans.
It looks like yes - now the Figma AI features are under paid plans. I just checked myself and can confirm this. Guessing it'd get pretty expensive for Figma otherwise with the AI usage costs.
Yes, if you open a Figma file, you can go back to the old version by clicking the question mark at the bottom-right corner and clicking "Go back to previous UI." I'm not sure for how long that will be an option to stay on the old UI, but for now you can!
From what I understand, the AI design first draft feature is more for the brainstorming phase - sort of like a basic foundation to build upon before designing. Something I also think about is that many designers will go to Dribbble for ideas on structure - they could use Figma AI for this part too, as it's way more personalized for ideas on the type of functions they're looking to design for in terms of inspiration. It could be used for putting together ideas for a design hierarchy when new designers might be wondering, "How should I arrange this?". I could definitely see it being useful to new designers as a starting point for basic ideas, or even small startup founders.

I like the old version the most, but the new version is also good for AI features, as it makes work easier

Those AI feature available only in paid version?

Can we stick to old version of figma or we will be forced to update it anyway?
Yes, if you open a Figma file, you can go back to the old version by clicking the question mark at the bottom-right corner and clicking "Go back to previous UI." I'm not sure for how long that will be an option to stay on the old UI, but for now you can!
So less designing more generating generic designs, got it.
