The actual contents of the article are more about using an AI agent to playtest your docs. The premise is actually the opposite of the title: if an AI agent can figure out your API then your users probably can too.
No. You should assume your user is dumber than a brick - and not one of the smart or clever bricks, one of the really dumb ones.
I'll grant you your silly hamburger icon, I can memorize that one, if you grant me text icons for everything else, and low latency, and leave your ego and whatever you think you know about customers wanting to memorize 8 different icons for each app they use at the door.
Have you seen the average user in action? I'm fairly sure that's true at least on average. Even putting huge red warnings like "This action is irreversible" for some things will lead to user reaching out to you saying they didn't see it.
Agreed.

Absolutely. Users will fuck up basic things. I wrote a simple inotify wrapper and half of the issues I got were that it didn't work on Windows and MacOS.
