    Hell, this service might still have zero “AI” in it but count as an “agent” for marketing purposes.

    True. I do think that’s where we might find something useful after the bubble pops.

    But it’s some shit marketing though.

    “Microservices, but sometimes it hallucinates.” is a sales pitch targeted for gullible suckers.

      “Microservices with delegated responsibility and elevated permissions, but sometimes hallucinates” is slightly more accurate. Claude Cowork probably won’t rm -rf / but what do I know.
