Since coding with Cursor, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how much computing interfaces have changed in such a short period of time.
Just as we saw a paradigm shift from imperative to declarative interfaces, LLMs have opened the door to new kinds of interfaces.
Intent-driven interfaces are already everywhere - from AI assistants processing raw data, to Arazzo for defining how APIs map to human-scale workflows, to agents capable of handling complex tasks.
While the doomer view is “robots will take all our jobs”, my optimistic take is we finally have a human-centric way of interacting with machines and it’s going to supercharge our abilities
