COMPUTING INSIDE AN AI

Shifting from a model-as-person to a model-as-computer metaphor could enhance AI usefulness by enabling graphical interfaces and direct manipulation, rather than relying on slow conversational inputs. This new interaction paradigm could allow users to engage with AI like a dynamic, customizable app, offering more efficient and versatile functionality. Generative interfaces could eventually transform computing, allowing users to modify and create applications on demand for specific tasks.
