There's possibly a coda to all this…looking at how tools of creation are a surface to explore an idea against. Put another way, the user doesn't know, or know to enough precision, what they likely want, and as AI/ML gets closer to realtime, we get to explore a problem or task definition in at the speed of thought. In my opinion, that's what an interface lets you do. It's a tool for refining a loose intention into an exact one.
And one more small thing; I'm not sure who that picture in the Alan Kay quote is, but it's not Alan Kay, unless his almighty moustache and penchant for bed hair has somehow changed.
The excessive length of that article notwithstanding its bang on. UX is the killer. It’s how Canva won. And Apple. And most AI people are tech dorks. Tech dorks are not good design people generally speaking
Thanks for the insightful article.
