​Challenge

​Personal computing devices are constantly evolving in form and function. Designers often build around what users do, say, and need, yet the most transformative innovations in human-computer interaction are often sparked by visionaries who see past what currently exists. Today, generative AI has opened up the door for new visions. From dynamically-generated user interfaces that render on the fly to multi-modal agents that expand the ways we can experience information, it’s a hugely exciting time to build the future of human-computer interaction!
