Mine came when I watched a simple AutoGen setup autonomously break a vague task into subtasks, write code to solve each one, run it, catch its own errors, and fix them — all without me lifting a finger beyond writing … Read more
An insurance company deployed a claims processing agent that could handle 80% of routine claims without human intervention. The remaining 20% involved ambiguous situations: overlapping policy clauses, disputed damage assessments, claims touching multiple coverage types. The team’s first instinct was to keep improving the agent until it could handle 100%. That was the wrong approach. … Read more
A fintech startup deployed a customer service agent on a Friday afternoon. By Monday morning, it had confidently told 47 customers they were eligible for loan products they didn’t qualify for. The agent passed every functional test during development. What it didn’t pass was a systematic verification of safety constraints, output validation, and failure handling … Read more
Hiring managers reviewing harness engineering candidates see dozens of chatbot demos every week. A chatbot that calls an API and returns a response proves you can follow a tutorial. It doesn’t prove you can build systems that work reliably in production. What separates hired candidates from rejected ones isn’t the sophistication of their agent logic. … Read more
