Greta piece and insightful framing. Funny though, one of the few things I ask siri regularly is “weather”, since it’s geo aware a single word is enough, which is its own type of compression. The other is timers and alarms, “20min timer”, “alarm for 5pm”, very efficient since these apps oddly have high cognitive load for me with dials etc. Another is trading with a natural language wallet like @bankr, I’ve seen people command “sell half of this position once it doubles”, it’s a high density command that always manages to be difficult via a ui since it has to account for so many different uses. So in addition to compression there may be another dimension of cognitive load.

This is truly insightful! Thanks for writing. I was in a rut thinking the future of crypto UX is typing out what you want to happen onchain to an AI Agent but you make a great case for thinking much deeper.

love the essay! Do you think LLMs via chat/typing is also a useful complement to GUIs, or will it primarily end up being voice? If mostly voice, any thoughts on how we overcome the awkwardness of talking to ourselves at our desks (might be just me)
