Exploring AI interaction design and multiplayer with tldraw

The text discusses the potential of human-AI interaction modes and explores the idea of using multiplayer as an approach. It reviews existing interaction modes such as ChatGPT, Notion AI, and GitHub Copilot, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses. The author then introduces a new concept called "AI as teammate," which involves creating interfaces that have affordances, allow for proactive AIs, and enable multifunctional interactions. The text also presents software sketches built on tldraw, a multiplayer infinite whiteboard web app, with NPC users that can follow commands and offer help. These sketches demonstrate the potential of using multiple helpful AIs at different project stages. The author concludes by discussing design conclusions, technical architecture, and future-facing hunches related to AI-as-teammate approach. Overall, the text emphasizes the importance of exploring new interaction modes between humans and AIs, with a focus on creating more sophisticated and helpful AI interactions.
