AI Interface Foundations
Four posts that build on each other: chat as a surface, structured outputs and components, trust boundaries, and durable workflows. From working model to working product — much of that work lives in the interface.
4 parts
- Part 1
Chat is a surface, not the product
Why AI products should treat chat as an entry point into structured UI, workflows, and decisions.
- Part 2
Structured outputs need structured interfaces
How schemas, components, and model responses work together to make AI interfaces predictable.
- Part 3
Trust boundaries in AI interfaces
A practical way to separate suggestions, generated artifacts, and user-approved actions in AI products.
- Part 4
From prompt box to workflow
How AI products can evolve from single prompts into durable workflows with memory, checkpoints, and state.
