Microsoft: Productivity Future Vision

If you haven’t seen them, look at the Microsoft Future Vision concepts for some quite interesting ideas: link to this video link To me, what makes these fantasy UIs compelling is that they are usually extremely context-aware and content-aware. We haven’t quite worked out how to make real world computers work that way yet. We’re still very much tied to paradigms that are ultimately easier for the computer (apps, windows, menus, files) as opposed to things that are natural to humans. If I have one hope for ML, it’s that hopefully it will bring some context-awareness to computing so that the content becomes the user interface.

…ntent? To see Zuck as a visionary? Does his speaking deeply on this subject attempt to position him / Meta as an authority? Unless Facebook / Meta is setting expectations way lower than where they're about to deliver, I don't see how this will be viewed as anything other than a temporary salve to fill the vacuum sucking oxygen out of Facebook. 1 link to this video…

I have no idea how well this works in real life. But if the interactive surface is even close to what the video shows then isn't a big portion of the microsoft future concept video 1 fulfilled? 1 link to this video
