UI2: The Unified Intent Interface

UI2 seeks to directly convert user intention into action. Think if an assistant like Siri was implemented directly into an application—but you can type to it, and due to its deep integration, it's accurate, powerful, and fast.

And not only that, you can see exactly what that assistant would do as you are typing.

The Problem

The idea of the User Interface has always been the same since it's creation.

1. You have an intention to do something
2. You formulate how to translate that Intention into Actions
3. You take those actions on the UI to achieve your goal

But imagine a world where there is no barrier between intention and action. One where you can directly express your Intent—and have the computer handle the rest for you.

That very idea is UI2.

What is UI2?

UI2, or the Unified Intent Interface is a framework for a natural-language interface to any application.

It is powered by the idea of Intent Identification, merging all the intents in your app—searching, taking action, and more—into a single natural language interface.

UI2 can be described with four core ideas:

1. Unification: Search, taking action, and everything else you can do on an application should not be separate interfaces, but rather unified into one.
2. Intent Detection: The key point in combining these interfaces is identifying the user intent, now possible through LLMs
3. Context: Not only is intent detection based off of the text that you are typing, it also draws context from everything in your app—Allowing more powerful and more accurate intents.
4. Instant Preview: Imagine autocomplete for actions—not just words, in which you can "preview-before-committing."
