Really great read on the case *against* conversational interfaces:

Key point is that conversational interfaces like LLMs are great for read speed comprehension for humans but not great for write speeds.

We've encountered this first hand while building Gina. As we go over the universe of tasks possible to do with our phones and computers, there are a significant % of them that are easier to execute using a button/voice/emoji rather than type it out. 

We probably converge to a world where we take the best of both worlds and have a UX that can adapt to the task at hand.

It's much easier to click a button than type out a whole sentence to talk to AI.

The real magic then becomes how to *infer* what actions you'd most likely want to do based on your context.
