𝗪𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝘁 𝗮 “𝗵𝗼𝘁” 𝗔𝗜 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄? Call it 𝗔𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 😎 That’s it. I’ve been noticing a pattern. Almost every founder I speak with is building “AI agents.” Not because they all discovered the same breakthrough. Because the narrative is already winning. Yes, the shift is real. Even Gartner expects a meaningful share of enterprise interactions to move in this direction soon. But here’s the uncomfortable part. Most “agents” today: ▪️ Call a few APIs ▪️ Chain some prompts ▪️ Work on the happy path ▪️ Break when things get real We describe them as if they “reason,” “decide,” and “act.” What stands out to me is this: 𝗪𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. Most agents look impressive. Few deliver consistently. Because customers don’t care about the label. They care if it works. And when it truly works… 𝗡𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲. 𝗦𝗼 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝗺𝘆 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Are you building something genuinely autonomous… or something that just sounds like it is? #ai #genai #agents #startups #product #futureofwork
