Maybe you are in a job where it’s not a good use case but there are fields that are handling massive amounts of data or have a huge amount of time waiting for processing data before moving to the next step that I think handing it off to an AI agent to solve then a human puts the pieces together based on its own logic and experiences would work quite nice.


The HN fallacy that is a large % of the posts on AI

"AI is not good for what I do, therefore AI is useless"


not quite sure what you are proposing here. what exactly is AI agent solving in this example?

I keep hearing vague stuff exactly like your comment at work from management. Its so infuriating.


For instance cyber security toolsets like mde capture a lot of data. That data is made meaningless unless someone is looking through it, at my org there isn’t enough manpower to do that, so one solution is using an agent to help characterize that network log data into suspicious or what’s worthy of a human to follow up on.
