In the next five to ten years, the computer interface paradigm will change, we just do not know what its replacement is today. We will very likely interact with computers through either audio or vision without screens. Phones will become mostly irrelevant. Platform dominance will switch to another player.

The web as we know it will slowly lose traction as we switch to other interaction paradigms. We will no longer go to a webpage to search for the best lawnmower, we will just ask using voice and videos of product reviews will instantaneously play on our augmented-reality glasses. We will not order McDonald’s from the UberEats App: we will ask our AI companion to get a Big Mac delivered in 30 minutes.

Developers have to adapt today and embrace new paradigms, be working on smart glasses, an electronic pin or any other wearable that will fit our lifestyle and product use cases. With the ongoing AI wave, the dominance of any major player is being threatened. They will have to innovate, adapt or accept becoming irrelevant.
