Of course, CLI aren't dead and are in fact still going strong in certain areas. The same will remain true for WIMP in the forseeable future.

The only people really using the CLI are developers and people in related fields, who will be writing the apps that everyone else will run on their tablets/car/fridge/etc. PCs will not be going away in the foreseeable future for the simple fact developers will need them.
