> but I doubt the terminal will ever really vanish

I always smiled when in the various Star Trek series (pre 2005) the main crew made something in the holo deck it was always via voice commands and essentially "vibecoded", but whenever details mattered (veeeeeeery rarely, almost never) and a specialist was consulted, that'd be someone clearly looking at a mobile terminal interface

It's obviously fiction, but it amused me nonetheless... And it's possible that that's the future of our industry. But if it is, it'd consider it a dead industry, honestly. Even in that fictional universe, the value the specialist provides is almost never necessary
