I don't want to live in a world ruled by AI agents. I sincerely hope that superintelligence won't emerge while I'm still alive. I don't want to live in this dystopia.

I think it will be less "ruled by" agents, and more agents/robots doing all the plumbing that we don't want to do ourselves.

This is no different to "provide an API" being phrased as "build your software for curl".

Similar, but agents aren't just static, so the needs are different. The "API shape" should be different, somewhat. Aesthetics.
