I was a terminal person for 15+ years.
I loved Vim, knew all the shortcuts, and a black terminal made me feel like I was a cool hacker in The Matrix.
But terminals assume humans operate computers directly via files, commands, processes.
Agents changed all that.
You just say your intent. The agent operates the machine, using the same programming languages and Linux commands we spent years learning.
I’m still glad I learned computer systems before the AI era though. Understanding what sits beneath the abstraction makes you a better systems thinker.
That’s a moat in the AI era.
