This piece argues that a bunch of familiar UI patterns are going to age badly as AI assistants take over more of the work, especially anything built around rigid forms, deep navigation, and lots of manual clicking.
The UI is part of it, but i think the first thing people miss is the paper trail. once an assistant starts filling forms or moving stuff around, someone is going to ask “why did it do that? ” and “who signed off? ” a chat log feels flimsy for that. in something like expense approvals, hr changes, or even crm updates, i’d want a clean diff with approve/reject, not just a transcript and vibes. has anyone seen a product that does this well without turning into a giant compliance tax? honestly not sure on implementation.
