Every decade or so, a new platform emerges that reshapes how we build and use software.
First, it was the web, a revolutionary shift that allowed anyone to access interactive interfaces through a browser.
Then came mobile, which redefined how we interact with technology in our daily lives through iOS and Android apps.
For a while, the industry believed the next frontier would be AR/VR. The hype was almost faded, but with devices like Apple Vision Pro or Ray-Ban Meta glasses interest is rising again. And in that world, User Interface will not be limited to visuals! Voice and conversation will play an increasingly central role.
Generative AI has accelerated this shift even faster than expected.
With the rise of ChatGPT and large language models, we’re entering a new era where natural language becomes a primary interface. Instead of navigating menus, users simply talk to apps.
And just as iPhone introduced the App Store, ChatGPT is becoming a platform of its own.
Today, we can build apps inside ChatGPT using prompt engineering. But the real transformation is happening one level deeper – with MCP servers and the ChatGPT Apps SDK, which let you deliver fully interactive applications directly inside the chat interface.
This fundamentally changes how users will interact with software in the next decade.
