- Building a home theater PC on Linux is now easier than on Windows or macOS because agents can perform tasks without human intervention.
- Modern operating systems like macOS require human interaction (e.g., clicking) for many settings changes, which is inconvenient when using agents.
- Linux, traditionally operated via text UI, is ideal for agents as they can execute scripts without needing graphical interfaces.
- Agents do not benefit from human-centered design; they prefer direct, scriptable UIs over point-and-click interfaces.
- The author argues that the future of computing involves humans interacting through natural language agents, not directly with graphical UIs.
- Linux has accidentally become a standard for user interface design in an era where users are increasingly non-human agents.
