Watching AI agents use the terminal makes me think the CLI was always a really bad UX for humans. LLMs remember so many more flags than me, and are far better at combining them, along with pipes, to get the information it needs.

This is maybe a bit of a spicier take than intended. I’m not really offering any alternatives. I still use the CLI as a human being, I prefer it to GUIs for a variety of use-cases, but I’ll never be as proficient at it as the robots are.

That is a reason why I'd love a have a good combination of both. There is currently -> www.warp.dev But it completely breaks my habits, as I cannot use tab autocomplete with it in the way I am used to. Sadly this is a deal breaker for me after trying it for ~2 weeks. I love the concept though.
