Can you elaborate? How in the world would I interface with claude other than sending it messages?
- fragmede 16d agoFor the abstract "you can do anything" product, you want an open ended interface, but if I'm, eg, renting a car, is a free form text box really the way to go? The rental company knows exactly what information they need from me before they'll rent me a car, so a free form text box so the computer can ask me questions one by one vs a traditional form, seems suboptimal.
- nonethewiser 16d agoBut we're talking about Claude right? Not some bespoke app powered by AI? The interface cant only be wide enough to rent cars.
- dvt 16d ago> How in the world would I interface with claude other than sending it messages? The protocol will of course be `text -> text` for the typical LLM (though some new models are structured, as we saw yesterday with Jev). Even so, the user doesn't need to be exposed to the protocol (almost ever). It's not like I'm crafting a POST request to send this form. There's a lot of room for window dressing, and I look at AI like I look at the touch-screen. It was a fun technical toy until people (mostly Apple) poured in a lot of serious effort into "ok, how do we make this pleasant to use, intuitive, and genuinely useful?"
