Is MCP Going to Change How We Design Software?

With MCP-style integrations and agentic systems, it feels like APIs are becoming the new UI.

If AI agents are the operators, are we about to redesign products around machine-readable interfaces first, humans second?

Or is that overhyped?

Would love to hear how people here are thinking about this shift.
