GPT‑6 and Intelligent UI for everyone

throwaway7783

Is this OpenAI catching up with Anthropic artifacts? At the same time they say "We’ve trained GPT‑6 to compose responses using text, visuals and interactive elements...", rather than a harness.

AFAIK, they already had a simpler form of this. It was kind of an obvious next step. Now connect it up to tools so that we can again comfortably do the things that are more precise by hand! The “pick a color” or “select the width on a slider” use case is coming closer.

I find it extremely strange that they're adding GPT-6 Sol to Chat over GPT-6.1 Sol which is significantly more capable.

I'm also building something similar for an internal project, based on the vercel's json-render design. It hasn't been too challenging, especially since the release of faster models like 5.6 Luna.

This looks bad, I want the output to be as much as text based so I can easily export it and further processing it, plus, this might make the resource-eating app even worse.

In the video, they showed examples of ChatGPT making interactive tutorials on how to fold origami, how to arrange colours/interior and how to assemble a bike. Supposedly, people were struggling to follow written manuals and they needed an interactive explanations. I'm not a mathematician and I would certainly love having a tool that would do ELI5 on some complex stuff, but I'm really worrying about using this too often and outsourcing my ability to do stuff to some mega corp.

It makes sense they’re doing this - I’ve noticed lately when asking a more complex question involving a lot of nonlinear data using Codex work mode, Astra and Sol will write a fully html document to better display the info with a Cliff’s Notes version in chat.

I made a prediction last year that there'd be a new UI protocol (like HTML) but for agents. I believe that custom or personalised UI's are going to be the new browser interface. More radically, I think browsers can be completely replaced. My news feed can be personalised to me, based on what AI thinks might be important from all sources like Reddit, X, HN.

The intro video is just lame. Those things never happen in real life.

> The compiler allows the interface to appear progressively as the model generates it, without waiting for the entire response to be complete. why not just stream html?

So I guess it's going to nail the bicycle the Pelican rides on, right?

Is it me or GPT-6 Instant food answer gives the vibe to check the hell out immediately? It's like the it will start to explain a sunny Sunday afternoon from 20 years ago for 5 full pages.

Written manuals/guides come with pictures. The ad is dishonest.

I've had the most success with GPT explaining things to me by making it take a few sentences at a time back and forth, instead of reading full write-ups of whatever I asked. It also often poisons the conversation if it misunderstood some part of the question, and I can lead it better by continuously questioning its statements. It's also more engaging that way. I've been learning music lately and it kept re-pasting the same one chord visualization throughout many conversations, almost randomly and often barely related to the question. So I at least hope this won't be as aggressive so I can prompt it away!

This seems like a natural progression of models becoming better at frontend coding in general. "Here is a library of [svelte/react/whatever] components, use them to construct a helpful visual to demonstrate your point." The deconstructed bike at the beginning was in a class of its own, however.

How would a user know whether a generated visualization to illustrate some process is accurate or not?

Love it. I've been using $visualize a lot in the codex desktop app, and having even richer experiences will be sweet.

I wish things like bikes came with mostly-written manuals. Maybe a few diagrams. If anything, things are too pictorial these days.

GPT-6's design sense is kind of ridiculous imo. I have explicit instructions to tone it down. Less taglines, eyebrow text, subheadings, decorative spacing, pills, cards. Hopefully this doesn't bleed into the chat...

The irony really is that LLMs are partly responsible for the walls and walls of text as seen in the video in the first place. And now we are asking LLMs to solve it.
