Who in the hell calls a GUI a "Gooey"?!
Some serious thinking going on here! OK, so I use to say "Gee You Eye" until the Gooey people infected my brain! But then consider this: Do you say 'Nasə or "En Eh Es Eh"

Nope, UX predates that period. It encompasses the user interface, regardless if it is graphical. And by graphical we mean pixel-based, as computer screens used to be character-based before that. I still remember all the fun we had back then with incompatible graphics standards like SVGA and Hercules
There's also HMI or human-machine interface (which also includes input/output peripherals). But that term gives me a vision of plugging a cable into my skull

"Cognitive scientist Don Norman is credited with coining the term, “user experience” back in the early 1990’s when he worked at Apple"
You are right.
I was more referring to when it became a trend (at least in France). It was strongly attached to agile, design thinking, etc...
By the way I just discover than HMI is not a French term (IHM).

NASA is pronounced with a short "a" sound, as represented in the dictionary phonetically as | ˈnasə |
Nobody speaks each individual letter in this acronym, i.e. En A Es A (NASA), rather they say | ˈnasə |
So it's weird that, for some acronyms, people sometimes spell out the letters and others try to pronounce it as a word.
Language is interesting and weird!

Or the “humane interface” if you take it all the way back to Jef Raskin…crimsonwarlock wrote: ↑14 Jun 2022Nope, UX predates that period.

It's amazing how much they copied straight from the Xerox.

I do it both ways, G, U, I when talking in real life to someone, and gooey in my mind, i.e. when I read about it.
