I very much disagree. Computing is going more and more towards integrated devices (phones, tablets, etc.) and companies are making serious investment in voice. Siri, Cortana, Amazon Fire, even my PS4 claims it can be controlled with voice. Once this reaches a certain level of utility it will become dominant. &quot;Hey computer, open that word document I was working on yesterday. No, the one about the Davis merger&quot;.<p>That is more a long-term goal. Currently the future of UI is physics systems. The little bit of UI animation that happens today often uses interpolation routines (e.g. easing in it&#x27;s many forms). Interpolation is time based and has annoying limitations like it is hard to coordinate multiple animations, it is hard to update animations smoothly on the fly and it can be non-trivial to reverse out of an in-progress animation.<p>I think we&#x27;ll see a strong movement towards natural looking physical based movement throughout the UI.
