OpenAI's no-interface future leaves 'nobody learning software
openai's greg brockman envisions a future with 'almost no interface' where agents handle digital tasks, rendering software skills obsolete.
greg brockman predicts a shift from feature-packed apps to persistent, context-aware agents that operate as invisible layers, stating users 'want no product' and 'nobody learns software anymore'. he acknowledges that previous attempts like 2023's plugins failed due to model inadequacy despite the company's marketing hype. current reliability issues still force businesses to rely on heavy prompt engineering and custom integrations. this vision competes with current products like codex and suggests a massive rethinking of human-computer interaction if reliability gaps close.
