I would say your neighbors are the perfect use case for AI. AI can understand human language. Your neighbors probably never were able to use Google for search, compare flight tickets online, Wikipedia etc. Give your neighbors something like Alexa powered with better AI, and they are sold.

This year, a lot of big companies are building the agentic layer.

This has to be build and takes time.

But this is the major thing were ai will be introduced into every single layer of software we have.

The HR System which might have needed x people? The agent has solved 90% of tickets already before they hit a human. Agents will do the repetitive but not that easy to automate tasks.

>My neighbors for example are normal working ppl they don’t know how to open a zip file (they call me to help them with something like this) and they are in their early 40s so not that old. Sure companies and workflows are going to become agentic but not everyone needs it or even wants it.

Maybe not everyone (yet) but your neighbours clearly do need it.

Feels like collectively we are under indexing on LLMs as user interfaces. I use a CLI with an agent to things I once did in a GUI. Your neighbors should never have to worry about zip files again.

What makes you so sure? Some would call it "automated running scissors" and want tools firmly in responsible hands. And could assess "automated (indeterministic) reliability" as still far away in time.

Are there any contexts we may have missed that would surely, safely replace individual deliberate action with "the ANN can do it"?
