Similar to how AI assitants give you answer directly instead of making you search through walls of text. Generative UI builds the right interface based on the context and intent of the user.
Great link, I haven't seen that before. I saw someone at Microsoft make an "OS" that was just copilot chats per-window, generating the HTML. I recreated it and it's not great, but it's a fun toy that _feels_ transformative, unlike almost every AI product ever made besides the fundamental chat interface.
Imagine AppLess running a model as good as qwen at 20,000 tok/sec. It would be generated in a shorter amount of time as downloading a webpage right now. If this works out the consequences are kind of scary. The end of SaaS, the end of software being the moat or the property of companies, the embolstering of data protection (since that's fundamentally what code operates)...
The goal of generative UI should be to make software more personal while preserving the workflows people already know. Two users might have very different interfaces, but each should have a consistent experience over time.
I can only imagine the troubleshooting and customer support experience. Yet another problem created by “ai” that’s probably only solvable with more “ai”
I understand the skepticism. We hear this often and are working on it. As AI agents become more common in SaaS, these experiences will become more reliable and ready for everyday use.
In Generative UI, the interface needs to built in realtime based on context and intent of the user. Hence the constraints. Ideally we are targeting sub 500ms to compete with current software.
