This is a submission for the Building with A2UI Google spent I/O talking about agents and infrastructure. But they didn't spend much time on the glue layer how agents actually talk to humans. That gap is where the next wave of frontend architecture lives. If you understand A2UI, if you can build dynamic component registries, if you know how to stream and handle errors and present agent reasoning transparently you're not just a frontend developer anymore. You're building the interface layer that lets autonomous systems do real work. That's the job that matters right now. The tools are out of the sandbox. Build.
