The predecessors of agentic AI, humans, have figured this out. They use this thing called user interfaces to do computing. If agentic AI can't use UIs like humans, why bother calling them agents?
I feel like there is momentum around this idea that all of computing needs to be re-invented (e.g. MCP, "agentic AI needs its TCP/IP moment") to address the deficiencies of agentic AI when what really should be addressed is their inability to be true agents for humans, using the tools humans already use.
Using UIs doesn't even have to be visual. Visually impaired users regularly use computers as well. Since UI for the visually impaired is all text based, it seems reasonable for LLMs to start there.
