GenAI convergence with natural language and mixed reality redefines human-computer interaction efficiency

Ongwere argues that generative AI creates a critical inflection point in human-computer interaction, where the path taken now determines whether organizations achieve maximized efficiency or face resistance. He advocates that natural language and mixed reality convergence—not AI alone—is the mechanism through which humans and machines can actually work together productively.
