ChatGPT changed the interface forever

Chat-first design is spreading like wildfire

👋 Good morning/evening (wherever you are). It’s Monday.

The biggest changes in technology usually start with a new way to interact.

The mouse, the touchscreen, the social feed.

ChatGPT is the next one because it changes how people find information, make decisions, and create, all in the same place through the same interface.

When the interface changes, behavior changes. And when behavior changes, the biggest companies in the world rebuild around it.

Think about it:

Everyone is rolling out their own ChatGPT-style experiences. Check out Rakuten and Amazon. The list is growing fast.

Of course this could fail.

But when was the last time you saw this many brands copy the same idea this quickly? That’s how big this is.

Remember, everyone will copy it eventually. Maybe not the whole thing, but pieces of it will be everywhere.

It could easily become the default way you interact with every workspace.

OK let’s keep going ↓

This is fun (and a little crazy).

You may have heard that Veo 3 can follow text instructions from an image.

Well…I tested it with a quick action shot using timing instructions.

I also shared the 2 exact prompts + additional notes/thoughts.

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis sat down with Logan Kilpatrick to talk about “world models” like Genie 3, how they’re helping AI understand reality, and why new benchmarks like Kaggle’s Game Arena matter on the road to AGI.

Imagine this: “One AI playing in the mind of another AI”
