Prakshal Jain says he quit his $300K Meta job to co-found MitosisLabs with Alex Morris.
- He spent 10 years in UX/HCI, including frontend work on Meta Quest, Facebook/Instagram on Quest, and Meta AI app UX.
- His argument: AI is changing the human-computer interface, and the best UX may become “no UI” as people increasingly ask ChatGPT or Claude Code to do things directly.
- The post frames current dashboards, forms, and status reports as a temporary way to keep humans in the loop while the internet moves toward agent traffic.
