Next 10 years we will observe AI’s exponential growth, PR with AI, review with AI, users expect we should have AI integration, and even AI makes manually taking note not longer necessary.
I think in the coming years, predefined UI will gradually become unnecessary, except for very complex UI like calendar, WYSIWYG editor, whiteboard. AI will help assemble user interface out of void dynamatically . So a simple core is necessary.
For example, Do we even need a $:/ControlPanel UI predefined? Maybe even not necessary, let AI modify the config tiddlers, or write a UI out of nothing when we need it.
From my perspect of view, TiddlyWiki is a graph database. And plugins provides some predefined UI to do CRUD with it. I’m still writing UI with AI’s help, so normal users won’t need to, but in the next few years, normal users will be able to DIY, and discard the UI when it finish the job, because AI token will be so cheap (like what DeepSeek does), discard an AI result will feel like Exhale after Breathe. (That is why I don’t think AI result should be store in the wiki persistently.)
