I have always spelled it out in my head, and the first time I heard someone say it I was utterly confused as to what they meant. To me, if I were to try to pronounce it, it would sound like "guy", as in the first syllable of "guide". Unlike Nasa or scuba, there's no universally obvious pronunciation for GUI—and thus I think it should be spelled out.
