I was going to comment in protest - "but the CLI has always been there, and it'll always be..." But then I realized that you're probably right. I'm kinda looking forward to looking back with bewilderment on those decades of doing CLI stuff with remembering all those commands and shell intricacies and whatnot.

In my vision of the future I see one of my descendants 100 years from now cussing furiously that his AI avatar is borking up his request, and one of the local neckbeards walks up, does an obscure incantation that pops up a command window, types a few lines of text and fixes the problem right up. "Newbs...geeze" he says as he walks away. Maybe the proles will one day be permanently denied the CLI, but even if only as a lowest common denominator administration tool of last resort, I predict there will be a CLI somewhere.
