The keyboard era is officially over

They're dreaming of keyboards being taken off the market entirely one day when this goes mainstream, and I'm imagining trying to play a video game going "W, W, W, A, A, S, S, W, W SPACEBAR, W SPACEBAR GOD DAMNIT I DIED AGAIN I can't even get past the tutorial on this shitty game"

Don't worry, they're making AI to play games for you too

I love playing "summoner" characters whose minions have "AI". I handle the macro and pick up loot. It makes me feel like I'm watching a good plan work out.

All I can think of is this:

Truly, the most fitting word to end the keyboard era.
