What people are saying Observed

  • “OpenAI just launched Intelligent UI. Do you think eventually ALL software will move in this direction?. OpenAI just launched Intelligent UI, and I think this is one of the more interesting shifts in software UX we've seen in a while. Not because interactive components inside an AI response are completely new. But because a company at this scale is now essentially saying: the interface itself can become adaptive. I've been building around the same idea since early 2026 in my own product. I call it GAIA, Generative Adaptive Intelligence Architecture. The basic idea is that the user shouldn't have to understand how the software is structured. My platform has grown into a pretty ridiculous combination of ERP, CRM, bookings, forecasting, automations, communications, AI agents, integrations, tools, documents and a lot of smaller modules. Traditionally, that means more navigation. More tabs. More dashboards. More UI for the user to learn. I started going in the opposite direction. The user expresses an intent, GAIA figures out which data and agents are needed, and then the interface adapts to the task. A chart. A forecast. Priorities. A document. Something to approve. An actio”

  • “Seeing you mentioning "apps" makes me think I have not explained it well... I'm not talking specifically about performance here, more about ease of use and not having to learn to interact with a machine via UIs, keyboards, mouses and weird things like these. They just care about getting the result they want without having to learn our cute UIs. If they could ask the machine to "machine do this now!" and it would be done (quickly, of course) they would be really happy (and pay you well for it).”
