The quoted tweet nails a flaw in every AI app: one endless chat where your flight, your taxes and your breakup all live together. wabi's take is that every part of your life gets its own thread, and the AI in each one pings you first — proactive rather than reactive. The author quips that wabi's $55M is funding a fix for the UI nobody else bothered to fix, making interaction design itself the product pitch.
