I think the next paradigm shift in software is going to be LLM-inferred user intent. Serving just what you really want, when you want it. Currently all inside whatever interface the LLM provider offers, but soon whatever interface the LLM decides is appropriate. People won't use apps anymore. Your LLM will tell you which emails you need to address, and will automatically triage the rest (and action those which can be actioned autonomously). You won't navigate to Facebook. You'll ask your LLMs what your friends are up to. You won't navigate to TikTok. You'll ask the LLM for some funny videos (or whatever you're in the mood for). We won't need to structure data hierarchically anymore. Just dump it somewhere, an LLM vectorises it, and it's super easy to retrieve later in whichever domain one needs it.
The internet is about to undergo radical transformation.

- Gareth321 2mo agoIt's fascinating the different opinions people have about the AI future. For me, it feels like a breath of fresh air. Like I've been fighting my computers and gadgets and appliances my whole life to get them to do what I want. AI proposes a future where the entire layer of frustration disappears between what I want, and getting it. This is basically a utopia for me, but I have seen many with similar positions to you. I hope you do not take my comment as disrespect, because it's not. Everyone has a different version of utopia. I suspect your opinion might overlap with the preference for a manual transmission, older engines which can be easily maintained, Linux, "dumb" phones, and other products which can be easily repaired by you. I share a certain fondness for all of these, but would gladly sacrifice them to slash the frustration they entail.
