The Prompt Collapse: Why Natural Language Interfaces Are About to Eat Traditional Software
The end of software as we know it has already started. For decades, we believed learning the interface was part of the job—memorizing commands, clicking through menus, mastering shortcuts. That belief just died. With natural language interfaces, the barrier between human intent and computer execution disappears. You don’t “use” software anymore. You talk to it. The result: an entire industry built on complexity is about to collapse, and the winners will be those who know what good looks like, not how to make it.
