the future interface is probably three layers:
1. ambient intent capture
voice, location, calendar, screen context, messages, habits, biometrics, etc. the system understands what you’re trying to do before you explicitly “open” anything or augments your intent deeply.
2. agentic execution
the actual work happens through agents operating software, apis, browsers, documents, email, calendars, workflows, payments, support systems, whatever. most “computer use” becomes machine to machine clerical labor.
3. ephemeral verification ux
humans still need to inspect, compare, approve, edit, reject, or enjoy things. that’s where gui survives but as disposable, task specific surfaces generated for the moment.

Growing suspicion that there are vanishingly few use cases for consumer agents. People don’t do work in their personal lives. The only people who do are sf dorks using spreadsheets to plan trips to tahoe

taste > skills
taste seems more scarce these days, and increasingly differentiating in the age of AI where so much of skills-based productivity is offloaded to compute.
makes me think about the development of taste, and how we nurture taste for the next gen of humans.

People asking what taste is, or is there a framework ––
It's knowing what good looks like. Person who has taste in certain things, can find good things, create good things and point out how something needs to change to make it good.

Today, we hit over £4billion mortgage submissions! This is a huge milestone for us, perhaps even more so given the circumstances. We know so many people are worried about their home finances. We're still online and ready to give you the best advice and support we can 🏠❤️🔑

A bit more than one year ago, I joined @habito straight out of uni. I'm incredibly glad I did so - in part because I get to write Haskell and PureScript every day, but mainly because of the great colleagues who trust, teach and challenge me. I learned so much already.

Today is reportedly #BlueMonday - the saddest day of the year. So, to make it a little less blue, two of our Habito cabs are giving away free rides all day, all over central London! Starting with some lucky commuters in #waterloo #toottoot #taxi 🚕 teapaw.org/habito/status/10872645…
