Generative UI from Gemini 3 Pro - Jakob Nielsen on UX Google's new Gemini 3 Pro is making waves, but not just for its top leaderboard scores. The real story? Generative UI: interfaces that AI designs just for you, right when you need them. Users overwhelmingly prefer these custom-made interfaces over regular websites (90% of the time!). Sure, human designers still win by a hair, but with AI improving exponentially and humans staying roughly the same, that won't last long.

"The dawn of cheap, disposable UI"

I finally got an invite to surf.social – I really love the concept of a new take on the social space, but I think the app is a good example of too much design.
