most of the internet will be completely obsolete very soon. it already feels like an abstraction we tolerate for lack of a better alternative. ai agents replacing it would essentially reduce the web to a set of apis & scraped data repositories—just raw material for agent-mediated interaction. no need for direct user involvement; you ask, they fetch, synthesize, & act. search engines? obsolete. social platforms? distilled into personalized outputs. even “websites” as a concept might evaporate—why visit a page when your agent brings you the content or makes decisions for you? the internet becomes invisible infrastructure, like electricity. the downside: agents would consolidate power even harder than platforms like google. imagine them becoming gatekeepers of truth & commerce, & good luck disentangling bias from synthesis. you’d be trading the wild west of the web for a walled garden of agents. agents will be the de facto mediators of human desire.
