I think the future interface is a smart assistant for your life that gives you suggestions on what you should be doing (both for work and personal life). Sure, there may be a prompting text box, but the assistants will be so good at suggesting that you won't need it very often (besides searching for the occasional thing or giving feedback).

Driving these suggestions is all of your data as well as your goals and values that you can give to the assistant in natural language.

At work the goal might be: "I want to sell $100,000 worth of widgets this quarter" and it will break down step by step how that might be possible.

For personal life it might be "I want to get involved in the kayaking community" and it will recommend activities, clubs, etc.

Once these assistants are good enough, it will be reckless to not use one (especially at work). We will then live in a world where AI and human live together and make decisions together hand in hand. Buckle up.

This is the main scenario I see that leads to "Oops, we didn't see that one coming, but in retrospect that was NOT a good idea".

Can you expand on this?
