Look at what Windows and Mac users need to mimic a fraction of our power

Next up: Spare yourself from formulating any prompts, let our SI agent control our thin client by asking you leading questions that you answer by drooling for yes and picking the nose for no!

I don't know why exactly but something about the arrows feel repulsive and oddly gross.

Reminds me of Idiocracy. Are we idiots yet? This is so that AI agents can "guide" a human, directing the meat bot more easily. Telling the meat bot where to click and what to do. The entire "what to think" step isn't even necessary when there is no thought. Because thoughts and decisions are annoying. It's astonishing how much people are already "algorithmically" steered so they don't have to turn on their rational thinking.

> big-arrow-on-the-screen (bigarrow): one small macOS CLI and an agent skill. Click-through, never steals the focus, gone by itself. MIT.

I absolutely loathe this phrasing now. I don’t even know what part of it is good or notable.
