(most) Kids will likely never learn these command and attributes and output like we passionately did in 1994. LLMs be spittin' them command lines quick and correct, transpiled/translated from English/French/...Macedonian if you like. they already do, and it already helps a lot.

Perhaps one may learn to remember <df> and <ls -a>, but will definitely not care to produce by heart oneliner bash abominations sprinkled with sygils and pipes and three-char cmd names.

This whole article very true, but somewhat irrelevant to 2024. Claude/Mistral/CHatGPT been parsing outputs perfectly, and there are plenty of experiments into getting the LLM to assist code writing and parsing results directly from the cmdline. And you know what, this also works in 100% console mode, you don't need GUI to talk to the new GUI called LLM.

the smaller models get, the sooner they get embedded in shells. then you'll get the real Ghost in the Shell, yeah...
