{"slug": "observations-about-models-2026-may", "title": "observations about models / 2026, may", "summary": "The author predicts that mass adoption of AI will occur when locally run models match the capabilities of remote models, potentially replacing traditional operating systems and apps with a single agent that dynamically generates interfaces and manages data based on user constraints. They compare this shift to the transition from Blackberry/Symbian to iOS/Android, suggesting a new \"operating system\" will emerge where agents, not apps, are the primary interface. Additionally, the author notes that AI's creative potential extends beyond generation, likening its impact to the shift from 2D drawing to 3D modeling, enabling iterative design and content creation.", "body_md": "decided to share my recent observations from working with AI coding agents / LLMs everyday (subjective option):\n_image for gradual transformation from drawing to realistic _\nin my opinion, there's a sense that a new product and a new operating system will emerge within which the next round of development will take place (as seen with mobile phones - Blackberry / Symbian -> iOS / Android (I don't include Windows/Linux - there wasn't mass adoption) -> Aluminium OS / Google Books? with local models?).\n_image for gradual transformation from drawing to realistic _\nI think mass adoption will happen precisely when locally run models can do the same as remote models (as it was shown in Google IO with audio glasses) - because why need a browser and apps in OS in which developers needs to embed an agent, if you can install an agent (harness + llm) instead of an app and a browser, and it will already draw the interface and show / help manage the data accordingly to provided interface guidelines, design systems and user flows (it feels like design - in Excel VBA we’ve designed boxes with strict sizes, but since web we started defining constraints instead of fixed - so it may happen with how agents represent or manage information - we will define constraints (design / data / tool systems) - agents will adapt it for user)\nIt's also very interesting what will be possible in terms of creative content - games, assets, etc. Because AI is not just generation - the more I worked with models, the more possible to do, it feels just like 3D/ digitalization moment - instead of drawing everything, we can define 3D models and then do. iterations with it\n_image for gradual transformation from drawing to realistic _\ndisclaimer:\nimage cover is generated by ChatGPT image 2 in Leonardo\nimages in text - grok imagine\ntext is autotranslated from my manual writing and rewritten manually again with many more details:)", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/observations-about-models-2026-may", "canonical_source": "https://dev.to/arenukvern/observations-about-models-2026-may-ah7", "published_at": "2026-05-23 01:04:10+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-05-23 01:32:41.321608+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "large-language-models", "products", "developer-tools", "data"], "entities": ["Google IO", "Blackberry", "Symbian", "iOS", "Android", "Windows", "Linux", "Excel VBA"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/observations-about-models-2026-may", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/observations-about-models-2026-may.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/observations-about-models-2026-may.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/observations-about-models-2026-may.jsonld"}}
