Yes, it is huge to spread the work out on embedded UIs in chat interfaces. But I think the design direction is going, is exactly the same direction of how Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, or any of the other assistants work, ifkyk.
The MCP community is just reinventing, but yes, improving, what we've done before in the previous generation: Microsoft Bot Framework, Speaktoit aka Google Dialogflow, Siri App Shortcuts / Spotlight.
And interactive UIs in chats go back at least 20 years, maybe not with an AI agent attached...
The next thing that will be reinvented is the memory/tool combination, aka a world model.
