Disagree here. As a control system it may become less skeuomorphic sure, as a content generation system it will obviously become MORE skeuomorphic.

This isn’t (entirely) UI, not the same evolutionary pathway ahead. This is real a reasoning system which can explain its reasoning with human language, and I’m guessing that will stay beneficial.

I don't see the human like content it creates as skeuomorphic, that's in tended design. It's just the conversation way we control it that is, and that I think will be toned down.
