Talking with a friend of mine who's been in development for some time and I had been talking a little bit about the skill required to wield AI effectively and that people were expecting it to be something that required less skill than it does.
He said his version of this observation is "your agents are only as good as you are." I think he's right, and the key is to practice and build the skill.
