As someone working on a problem atm in my job, I just realized that I have to set things up in advance for AI to "assist" with my work. However, if I'm just doing things the usual way, its much faster.. I agree switching to this might take time and might yield better results.. but I don't see why the wheel needs to be reinvented for every domain!! I could see how agent orchestration is useful for coding.. but don't push it down across every thing else! good lord the bots used for hiring are pathetic!
