I doubt this. Or, I doubt that it'll catch on.
Unlearnable UIs, as in those that 'adapt' to a user's needs (meaning change unpredictably) will just confuse and put off users.
LLMs being wrong at least enough of the time to make you not trust their output also makes me doubt this style of interface.
- dtagames 2y agoNothing says it has to be unlearnable or change at whim. Imagine your bank's website allowing you to say "show me what I earned from Wilco last year" and have it make the UI selections to achieve this. We will absolutely see these type of interfaces. Imagine how much Photoshop could be improved if you could simply ask to surface the tool you need instead of rearranging the interface yourself and hunting things down. Just like we expect apps now to be able to use the net, not just info on our own machines. You can already ask ChatGPT about many interfaces in popular software and it will give you step by step instructions for nearly any scenario. Soon, apps will integrate the understanding with the button and menu selections and offer to do it for you.
