The evolution of Interfaces
To those that believe the future of Human-Computer-Interfaces is mainly a text box with which we prompt magical A.I's, consider how interfaces like musical instruments engage all our senses/modalities and train our entire brain/body. Let's not loose this richness but build on it.

Generative Webdesign
I suspect right now a couple of teams are training generative ML models that are geared towards web design. Soon enough infinite site design variations can be produced with just a few prompts. Will it break the web design trend that all sites look very similar - or make it worse?

Great interfaces help people grow their skills and not become addicted
People learning about Art history by engaging with ML generative media system is amazing! Opportunity: Great interfaces/UX help users grow & level-up innate skills while using augmentation software - acting like "scaffolding" that minimizes addictions / dependencies over time.

Humane Interfaces
Humanity worked tirelessly for centuries to perfect the shape of tools we use to interact with the world - using all our senses & body. It led to marvelous interfaces, like musical instruments. The prospect of a single "magic" text entry box becoming the main interface is strange

“Double Diamond” - from “Designing Social Systems In A Changing World” - Béla H. Bánáthy (1996)
#Comment: This influential design framework, as with most of the systems thinking of that time, is in my opinion best described with Wolfgang Pauli's famous saying "Not only is it not right, it's not even wrong."
Certainly there are more interesting and fun "active divination" and "reality tunnel management" (RTM) systems out there to explore, that are not limited by the contemporary totalitarian cult of scientism.

Being process-oriented, not product-driven, is the most important and difficult skill for a designer to develop. - From "101 Things I Learned in Architecture School", by Matthew Frederick
