Funny you asked that in the age of AI. I can see in a few years your kids will wonder "What do you mean you wrote the code? You mean like type the letters and stuff? Why? didn't they have AI in your days?!" :-) No we didn't son...lol
I heard A. Karpathy lately was asked what language young people should learn and program in (js, python, rust, etc.) and ha said straight up: "English". Learn how to tell the AI what you really want to have done. And I thought, dang it, that's hard enough...
So, to answer your question, I feel if someone would hide all AI agents from me today, it would be a loooong and bad day. I mean c'mon, go back and actually read manual pages? Ugh, that would hurt...
For me today that would be laptop (that implies internet connection)
