It wouldn't be just verbalizing, you could type or gesture just as well. Nor would you need to communicate each command, the machine would recognize that you want a button for your camera, the checkout would understand that you want to checkout and understand each intended action as you do so.

The UI is totally fluid at all times, because an "intelligence" is actively manifesting it at all times. Nothing needs to be hard coded.

But I don’t necessarily want to have to continuously adapt to such a fluid UI. Unless you are proposing that the UI should effectively just read my mind, but until it literally does that to perfection, that will always come with the overhead of wondering whether it has the right understanding of what you want.

Then you can just have a static design, it's trivial and perceptively instant for the machine to generate it (or 10 of them if you want choice) and act like a "dumb computer from 20 years ago".

Hell the computer might even see your face, see your age and style, and be like "Yup, this guy definitely wants to checkout with a dumb, midi keytone 8-bit styled program"

No it absolutely is not. I spent a good 2 weekends using an agent to develop an alternative to a website that I didn't care to pay for. After all of that time, while it's functional and I do occasionally use it for its intended purpose, if you take into account the amount I paid in tokens and the amount of time I spent on it, the average Joe would've been better off just paying for the site, which is actually still better.

The only reason it works out in my favor is that I enjoyed doing it. Normal people don't want to fuck around with that kind of shit.

Is your argument now just: “AI will be able to do anything”?

▲spider-mario 14 hours ago | parent | prev [-]

I feel that this kind of sidesteps the point that smugglerFlynn was making about designing those interfaces.

If your stance is that AI will never be able to eclipse human design, then yes it's an impossible hurdle t overcome.

But already AI design is everywhere and regular people don't even notice (outside perhaps the intentional cues in mainstream image generators). It's only going to get better as people can interact with the design the same as the interact with another person.
