I personally have absolutely zero sympathy for anyone that uses "Agentic AI" - or any other form of AI - for anything at all.

It has been so transparently clear for years that nothing these people sell is worth a damn. They have exactly one product, an unreliable and impossible-to-fix probabilistic text generation engine. One that, even theoretically, cannot be taught to distinguish fact from fiction. One that has no a priori knowledge of even the existence of truth.

When I learned that "Agentic AI" is literally just taking an output of a chatbot and plugging it into your shell I almost fell off my chair. My organisation has very strict cybersecurity policies. Surveillance software runs on every machine. Network traffic is monitored at ingress and egress, watching for suspicious patterns.

And yet. People are permitted to let a chatbot choose what to execute on their machines inside our network. I am absolutely flabbergasted that this is allowed. Is this how lazy and stupid we have become?
