It’s not explaining failure, it’s making up a story about it.

I wish people would understand that “AI” is just a text transformer. Useful, yes. Genuinely intelligent, no.

I really don't have much sympathy for anyone that is continuing to use "AI" agents in their production environment. "AI" at every level has continued to show it is still predictive text on steroids.
