Good wordplay. It's for sure a toy. It's hard to re-implement an entire spreadsheet. What about it did you not like?

I'm curious what makes you say this? I feel like I discover how most sufficiently complex apps work by googling, or youtube. I'm also not convinced this makes traditional methods: walkthroughs, support videos, trainings etc imposs

Forcing chat for every action when direct UI interactions worked fine is definitely not what I'm advocating. I'm arguing for isn't chat-only interfaces. It's giving users both options: use the UI directly for quick chang

Good question. When I think about how people actually discover features, it's usually: 1) clicking through menus 2) reading docs/watching tutorials 3) getting hands-on help from a coworker or support person Some apps try to do pro

I agree this is a real problem. We will need a new set of tools to help developers with this. Just like a whole set of web analytics, logging, feedback tools were built when we moved to the web. Before you could just gather feedback from yo

Why do you need *external* documentation but for helping people to understand how software works? These apps will need lots of documentation but instead of having to "search" for the section you need it would be just exposed as yo

Yeah, exactly. This is the progressive disclosure. AI can give you a smart starting point (like a pre-filled formula) instead of making you start from scratch, and then you dig deeper only if you need to. That's what I mean by personal

I totally agree with this, and I'd go even further. When I'm having trouble with software, I often turn to Google to figure out how to use it. I'm then directed to a YouTube video, help article, or blog post with instructions

I think the problem is having to "learn" software in the first place. You don't have to "learn" how to work with a good accountant or lawyer. They make it easy by exposing what they can offer precisely when you need

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Good luck with Coldran. To answer this question: > why would anyone use this instead of building their own unique ui 0. Under our component library is tambo-ai/react, which are just React hooks, so you c

Thanks! We often hear that people can spin up a demo of an AI assistant with MCP and their existing components in a few hours. One person gave a demo to the entire eng team after a weekend!

We have a very similar model! The biggest differentiator from the NextJS/AISDK chatbot is that we have better support for interactive React components. If you visit our landing page, you can see a demo: https://tambo.co O

A ui is worth 1,000 tokens (at least). I agree that chat isn't the end interface for AI powered applications. That said the ability to describe desires in "fuzzy" ways is a usability value unlock. My take is that natural lang
