TL;DR: Enterprise AI teams are discovering that purely agentic approaches (dynamically chaining LLM calls) dont deliver the reliability needed for production systems. The prompt-and-pray modelwhere business logic lives entirely in promptscreates systems that are unreliable, inefficient, and impossible to maintain at scale. A shift toward structured automation, which separates conversational ability from business logic execution, is needed for enterprise-grade reliability.
