Abstract
The way we structure, conduct, and write up interactive systems research in UIST papers rests on assumptions about constraints that may no longer hold today. What should an impactful UIST paper look like when building working systems is no longer hard? I argue that it should look different, and that we should ask more of our papers once implementation stops being a bottleneck.
