'Agnostic' originally referred to a philosophical position regarding the existence of deities, but its usage expanded to mean 'neutral' or 'independent' in various contexts, including technology.
Initially, 'agnostic' meant 'without knowledge', but over time it evolved to mean 'neutral' or 'independent' in modern usage.
