Eugenia Kuyda, founder of @wabi, on why chatbots are the MS-DOS era of AI, and why a new interface is necessary to make AI's full potential obvious to everyone: "It always struck me as strange that people were using products like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Claude, but mostly for very simple use cases: for search, or to help them write something, help with homework." "No one was really mentioning any of these exciting capabilities that we just kept seeing the models get, and so we felt like there must be an interface problem." "There should be something simple for everyone, me included, to actually discover these amazing use cases that all these models already have." "We got obsessed with this metaphor that the current chatbots are really the Microsoft DOS era for AI interfaces. And that there will be some sort of a Windows/MacOS moment." "There is so much traction with chatbots... In order to unlock something else, you need a more exciting interface." @ekuyda
