As much as I hate it, you and your opinion is exactly what Jobs always talked about: people don't need things until they realize they need them.

You not envisioning use for it is just a past bias. You can't know that. You can't because we haven't yet reached the point where the OS is fully useful when controlled with AI.

But the industry types have been talking about "agents" for 30 years... This used to be a thing that "intelligent agents will go on the internet and gather information for you" then search engines came out and people were happy with that instead.

I'm sorry, but what was Steve Jobs ever uniquely right about except that we needed better touch screens on smartphones?

We don't see the same obvious applications of AI because nobody has developed a proper user interface for it. We're stuck with voice, chat, and dumping documents onto it. The current pro-AI stance is basically "fuck the user and fuck interfaces".
