intelligent user interfaces

An intelligent user interface (IUI) is a user interface for any application (often not AI) that includes some form of AI to help the user during theor interaction wiht the system. A simple example is data detectors that recongnise that an email message is abitu an event and offer to add a calendar entry. Note here that the undrelying applications (email and calendar) are not in themselves intelligent, but intelligence is being used to make life easier for you as a user. It is also possible to have AI system that does NIT have an intelligent user interface, for example using a terminal and text editor to write python code. The field cab be traced back to the 1960s, with various workshops through them late 1980s and early 1990s and the the ACM IUI Conference began in 1993.
