Easy to say, not so easy to actually get your mechanics, your project managers, and your business operations staff to get over that hurdle unless you’re willing to handhold them through the process of changing directories or explaining what an environment variable is to them. (This isn’t just boomers btw. Lots of young people have had the command line abstracted away from them their entire working lives)

That’s why some companies will lose competitiveness because basic AI literacy isn’t taught.

There are many perfectly successful companies out there with limited computer literacy among much of their employees, let alone AI literacy. Those companies are great targets for Anthropic’s enterprise sales team, if they can provide an intuitive user interface that allows said employees to make use of AI tools, allowing them to leapfrog the need for computer skills.
