The goal of generative UI should be to make software more personal while preserving the workflows people already know. Two users might have very different interfaces, but each should have a consistent experience over time.
It should be possible to run on Mac via https://github.com/mmastrac/diffgemma, but I'm at rustconf right now and I can't download weights on hotel wifi easily.
Why? Is two seconds too long? Would your other constraints be easier (usability and hardware spec) if this was longer? Does anyone actually need a UI generated in under a second?
The term "Generative UI" refers to a front-end design approach where an AI model dynamically builds a UI in real time instead of relying on static, hard-coded templates.
In Generative UI, the interface needs to built in realtime based on context and intent of the user. Hence the constraints. Ideally we are targeting sub 500ms to compete with current software.
Quite interesting to see no real comments here for 50+ minutes, so I will kick it off.
I'm a huge believer in this future of software. Having the UI layer completely abstracted from pre-written code and dynamically generated "on the fly" based on the context of the user is, I believe, the future.
Just think about the complexity of localization and how many IFs you had to write to solve different language versions, etc. in the old PHP code. A lot of that complexity can simply disappear.
Having dynamically built UI won't only be better for the user experience, it can actually allow us to create much more personalized experiences (I hate when UI teams constantly redesign perfectly fine software).
Interestingly, this will open up a completely new consumption interface, because I believe there will be a UI predefined by the creator of the application (your day 1 user experience) that will then evolve into a more personalized experience over time.

IFs! Oh no! Throwing all of this into a non-deterministic and expensive black box is making it less complex, you say?
Do you hate the designer changed the UI of your favorite app so you have to relearn it every three months?
Congrats! Now you need to relearn it every time you open the app.

That's why I have my own model restyle the delivered UI to my preferred UI.

let me try this out as well
OpenAI, OpenAPI and now OpenUI. Explain this to a non tech person...
I actually thought this was OpenAI until I read your comment

Oui ma chérie
Please for the love of god have a human write something that you expect other humans to read
"The gap became the north star" is written large enough though: I could read it with my own Aieyes!
It's also the only sentence I read on that page before closing it, of course.
Oh no.
oh, you eye?
i prefer wee

So much room to grow in this space.
this exactly the future we are working towards as well. You should checkout AppLess http://github.com/thesysdev/appless
