Building AI agents is 5% AI and 100% software engineering

Building AI agents is 5% AI and 100% software engineering

Production-grade agents live or die on data plumbing, controls, and observability—not on model choice. The doc-to-chat pipeline below maps the concrete layers and why they matter. What is a “doc-to-chat” pipeline? A doc-to-chat pipeline ingests enterprise documents, standardizes them, enforces governance, indexes embeddings alongside relational features, and serves retrieval + generation behind authenticated APIs with…

Can AI really code? Study maps the roadblocks to autonomous software engineering

Imagine a future where artificial intelligence quietly shoulders the drudgery of software development: refactoring tangled code, migrating legacy systems, and hunting down race conditions, so that human engineers can devote themselves to architecture, design, and the genuinely novel problems still beyond a machine’s reach. Recent advances appear to have nudged that future tantalizingly close, but…
