AI Interfaces Of The Future | Design Review



AI Summary

Summary of AI User Interfaces Video Transcript

Introduction

  • Host joined by Raphael Shad, creator of Notion Calendar.
  • Discussion on how AI will change user interfaces beyond chat UIs.

AI Interface Evolution

  • Traditional software focused on static elements (nouns) like text, forms, buttons.
  • AI changes design to focus on verbs, such as workflows, autocomplete, information gathering.
  • Challenge: Tooling to visually represent verbs on screens.

Vapy (Voice AI for Developers)

  • Vapy allows developers to create voice agents quickly.
  • Feedback on Vapy:
    • Lack of visual feedback during voice recognition.
    • Importance of multimodal cues.
    • Latency and natural conversation flow are crucial.
    • Developer-focused interface with latency metrics.

Retail AI (Voice AI for Call Operations)

  • Retail AI enhances call operations with AI voice agents.
  • Feedback on Retail AI:
    • Latency can break the illusion of talking to a human.
    • AI adjusts to new information during calls.
    • Potential for first-line automation with human follow-up.

Gum Loop (AI Automation)

  • Gum Loop provides AI automation with no coding.
  • Feedback on Gum Loop:
    • Uses a canvas interface for visual workflows.
    • Suggestion for different zoom levels and a legend for colors.
    • Potential for complex, branching decision trees.

Answer Grid (Answers at Scale)

  • Answer Grid turns prompts into structured spreadsheet data.
  • Feedback on Answer Grid:
    • Each cell has an AI agent to gather data.
    • Shows sources for data validation.
    • Suggestion for inline references in answers.

Polyat (AI Product Designer)

  • Polyat generates production-ready code from design prompts.
  • Feedback on Polyat:
    • Open-ended prompts can be anything.
    • Interactive design with incremental changes.
    • Suggestion for richer prompt builders.

Adaptive AI Interfaces

  • Adaptive interfaces change based on content, such as emails.
  • Feedback on adaptive interfaces:
    • Challenge of predictability and consistency.
    • Keyboard shortcuts for efficiency.

Zi (Smarter Email App)

  • Zi suggests specific responses based on email content.
  • Feedback on Zi:
    • Adaptive responses with high-level abstraction.
    • Keyboard shortcuts for quick actions.

Argil (AI Video Studio)

  • Argil creates videos with deep fake AI.
  • Feedback on Argil:
    • Trades off fidelity for immediacy.
    • Suggestion to bring selection UI closer to text input.

Takeaways

  • AI interfaces are evolving from chat boxes to diverse modalities.
  • Interfaces are focusing on verbs and keeping users in control.
  • The future of software is being reshaped by AI-native components.

Conclusion

  • The video showcases groundbreaking UIs that will continue to evolve.
  • Excitement for the future of AI in software design.
