Is Agentic AI Just Automation?
The rise of "Agentic AI" has sparked considerable excitement, but a critical question remains: is it truly transformative, or simply sophisticated automation? Many current agents operate as complex flowcharts, limiting their adaptability and problem-solving capabilities. This post explores why this architecture falls short and outlines a more effective approach to building genuinely intelligent agents. Delve deeper into maximizing coding agent performance with our guide, "How to Effectively Solve 100+ Tasks with Claude Code," for practical strategies.
Podcast: Strands Agents with Clare Liguori
Welcome to the podcast! Today, Thomas Betts speaks with Clare Liguori, technical lead for the Strands Agents SDK, a rapidly evolving open-source project. The discussion charts Strands Agents’ progression from a Python SDK to a robust, production-ready agent harness. Clare shares valuable lessons gleaned from scaling agents, including the strategic shift to a model-driven architecture. As the underlying LLMs continue to advance, explore what's next for this transformative technology—a topic further illuminated in "Many Companies Use AI.
Intuit scrapped its own AI agent architecture twice in four months. At VB Transform 2026, its AI VP called that the fast path
Intuit’s journey with agentic AI highlights a crucial truth: rapid iteration is essential. The company initially built a fleet of specialist agents, then pivoted to an orchestration layer, only to rebuild the entire architecture within 60 days after encountering limitations in context retention. This experience, shared at VB Transform 2026, underscores the challenges of scaling agent-based systems and the importance of prioritizing customer outcomes. As Brex demonstrated, observing agent behavior can be a powerful tool in policy creation.
