I sure hope so.
These are solved issues, and they've been solved for decades.

Wow, there's an uphill battle right there...
What parts caught your interest?
I have only read the auto-generated transcript as I prefer text to sound/video so I imagine a lot got lost there.
The part about translating text editing from desktop ui to mobile ui was interesting, while I mostly use the solution he mentioned being bad (tap where you want to edit) I realized the drag and drop the indicator function is something I use the times when I do miss and that's really useful.
As someone that is very text focused the dynamic.land landing site was a hellscape for me. All those graphics hiding the relevant information and having to zoom into tiny squares to read the actual text. Using the actual books as links in the everything section instead of a proper text list where I can read the book titles without straining my eyes made me give up and come back here to comment instead.
The Dynamicland website reminds me of the worst of the 00's, it really turned me off to the whole project
I watched this a couple of days ago. I really enjoyed his talk. Sometimes I feel like I’m talking crazy pills with what people put up with in UI. All his points made total sense to me.
Very good talk, I personally waste time daydreaming about how radically different the desktop could've been, if the xerox whatchamacallit was designed differently
Its funny because I have every so often commented on not liking ai in some ways but would like to see it done with linux or some other libre os. The main difference I have with this guy is he talks in terms of ui/ux but to me its sorta more. He compares to command line and that to me is the comparison point. I think a properly implemented ai os would be as different as adding graphics to what was command line only. I mean for awhile the installers were still command line and eventually graphics became part of it and I could see an os having one. As he says it needs to be an ethical one but to me as well it should be a small one that is specialized in knowing its own technology. By default it should be able to communicate with the user and know as much as possible about itself so it can be used specifically for itself. To me any additional capabilities should be like addons in the browsers. Specific additional models that are subserviant to the master and it uses to have greater capability.
