I think user interfaces could be made more adaptive if some artificial
intelligence techniques were used to make using them more intuitive.

I am still new to AI, but I think natural language understanding and 
neural nets in VLSI could provide promise for making computers do what we
mean rather than what we say.

I believe Xerox PARC has been working on some 3-d type of GUI. It was on
the cover of Byte some time back.
