The author gives an example of a HUD: an AI that writes a debugger program to enable the human developer to more easily debug code.

But why should it be only the human developer who benefits? What if that debugger program becomes a tool that AI agents can use to more accurately resolve bugs?

Indeed, why can't any programming HUD be used by AI tools? If they benefit humans, wouldn't they benefit AI as well?

I think we'll be pretty quickly at the point where AI agents are more often than not autonomously taking care of business, and humans only need to know about that work at critical points (like when approvals are needed). Once we're there, the idea that this HUD concept should be only human-oriented breaks down.
