Wabi Is Building Personalized Software for Everyone In a recent report from OpenAI, almost 80% of ChatGPT usage was for practical guidance, seeking information, and writing. AI usage shouldn’t be limited to search and writing. At wabi, Eugenia Kuyda is building a new kind of AI interface so that... anyone can create and share personalized AI-generated software. Eugenia joined a16z’s Anish Acharya, Justine Moore, and Erik Torenberg to explain why we’re still in the MS-DOS era of AI, how mini apps could change the way we interact with AI, how she started building AI products in 2012 and never stopped, and what she saw in her conversations with the early OpenAI team. 00:00 Introduction 00:54 AI companions & personal software 14:17 Mini apps as community catalysts 19:07 Wabi as a framework for memory, context, and expression 23:11 Prompt sharing as an emergent user behavior 28:11 100x’ing the world’s meaningful software 30:21 The creator economy on Wabi 39:25 Visiting the OpenAI office 43:31 Predicting consumer behavior Eugenia Kuyda Anish Acharya Justine Moore Erik Torenbergshow more

welcome to AI's GUI moment

@wabi Really exciting to see personalized AI software becoming more accessible, the potential for innovation is huge!

@wabi such a great convo!

@wabi Personalized software? Count me in! Finally, my AI can stop judging my Netflix choices 😂💻

@wabi mini apps as the new magic spells? build, share, cast away

@wabi excited for this

@wabi We’re still building AI apps like command lines. The next leap isn’t smarter models, it’s better interfaces. MS-DOS → Windows was 10 years. AI might compress that to 10 months.

@wabi Mini apps with Main single yet most effective feature is the way to go for building the Future AI...

@wabi mini apps as the new magic spells ai gui moment, i dig it gm on wabi's creator economy openai chats, memory, context who else is following this

@wabi This definitely feels like a pivotal moment for AI. Curious to see how Wabi will navigate user adoption and feedback loops.

@wabi Personalized AI for all sounds epic

@wabi True, az, AI's potential extends way beyond what we're seeing now; Eugenia's vision for Wabi sounds quite promising, eh?

@wabi Love the ambition here! The journey from a big vision to a focused GTM is the critical first step. How is Wabi thinking about finding that initial beachhead audience to build a feedback loop with?
