Access is not mastery. The GUI democratized computing ↗

Con l’AI stiamo assistendo all’ennesimo giro dello stesso ciclo: accesso facile, poi un nuovo soffitto sopra chi sa usarlo davvero.

Design tools followed the same arc. Figma lowered the floor of UI design — suddenly, anyone could open a canvas and move elements around. Design systems lowered it again. Templates lowered it further. Each step made the starting point more accessible. And each step produced a new professional layer above it — people who understood not just where the buttons were, but what they were actually for.
