AI is reshaping UI — have you noticed the biggest change yet?

That’s what AI-driven interaction should be: not a feature you have to wrestle with, but an invisible assistant that refines itself around your needs.

It doesn’t need neon “powered by AI” labels; it should weave itself so seamlessly into the user journey that it feels like a natural extension of intent.

Designing AI experiences isn’t about replacing direct manipulation — it’s about enhancing it, layering new interaction models on top of well-established patterns to make interactions smoother, more intuitive, and ultimately, more powerful.

“With the new AI systems, the user no longer tells the computer what to do. Rather, the user tells the computer what outcome they want”.

AI is bringing a similar shift to UI design, moving us away from rigid, step-by-step processes and toward fluid, intuitive workflows.

The best AI isn’t the one that demands attention — it’s the one that disappears into the flow of what you were trying to accomplish in the first place.
