An autonomous agent scanned one of my codebases looking for bugs, missing tests, security gaps — anything worth fixing. It came back empty. Every issue it filed was a false positive.
That's not a victory lap. That's a ceiling.
The interesting question isn't how fast agents can improve a system.

Sixty-three issues closed across thirteen projects in one day. One person steering all of it.
The machines consumed every task I queued and sat waiting. The bottleneck didn't disappear — it shifted straight to me. To judgment. To deciding what matters next.
Automation is extraordinary at doing more of what you already know needs doing.

Scams Evolve, Target Human Judgment in AI-Driven Attacks
As cyberattacks evolve, they're no longer targeting weak spots in code or networks, but rather the weakest link of all - human judgment. With AI-driven scams on the rise, attackers are exploiting trust and manipulating people into becoming the unwitting victims of their clever tactics.

New research shows AI can spot patterns but still misses the deeper significance behind trends. While algorithms excel at raw data crunching, human judgment remains crucial for strategic planning and sound decision‑making. Dive into the study to see why our expertise is still irreplaceable. #AI #MachineLearning #HumanJudgment #StrategicPlanning

Where Algorithms Fall Short
When COVID disrupted global supply chains, AI systems struggled — there was no precedent at that scale.
Dr. Mohammad Hossein Jarrahi explains why AI isn’t something we can stop, and why the future depends on humans and machines evolving together.

LLMs are not just limited by hallucinations—they fundamentally lack awareness of their own capabilities, making them overconfident in executing tasks they don’t fully understand. While “vibe coding” embraces AI’s ability to generate quick solutions, true progress lies in models that can acknowledge ambiguity, seek clarification, and recognise when they are out of their depth.
