my wife is not in tech, but she’s been using codex, cursor and other ai apps for months in her daily work. She built landing pages, create reports, html docs and design ppts... she has no idea what “agents” means, she just feels these tools saving her a lot of time, and often shares the aha moments and ux issues.

i kind of feel like most “ai agents” are a hidden layer under the apps. regular people don’t need to talk about agents the way we do, they just learn the way we design the ai apps.

this isn't the first time i've heard non-tech friends around me share the feeling of using ai apps. and the one who can figure out how to accelerate the loop of building better and amplifing our imagination will probably wins
