This is getting panned, probably for good reasons. But, in a similar vein, I really think that generative applications are going to be big in the future. User speaks (or OS predicts) what they want and an app spins up on the fly. I don’t think they’ll wipe out traditional apps, but I could see lots of long tail cases where they meet users needs.

"Copilot, make me a drawing app."

MS Paint opens.

"No, Copilot! Make me a drawing app with feature X."

Fans turn on. Laptop gets hot. Ten minutes pass as the entire MS Paint codebase is downloaded and recompiled.

Finally, MS Paint opens. There's an extra button in the toolbar. It doesn't work.
