@bensig We’re building exactly this at Mirantis with Lens Agents — any agent, any model, your rules, with cost guardrails built in. https://t.co/cEBZYRAxCy

[Mario Sarcher @MarioSarcher]

@bensig Agree the ratio is flipping — but the harder problem isn’t building agents, it’s running them. 100s of agents per company means budgets, policies, audit trails, and who-can-do-what across your real systems. That’s the layer most tools skip.

[Mario Sarcher @MarioSarcher]

The industry calls it the "autonomy gap" — the distance between what an agent *could* do and what it actually *does*.

We're not missing capability. We're missing initiative.

Curious: Anyone else hitting this wall? What's helped?

[Mario Sarcher @MarioSarcher]

My AI agent is the world's best backseat driver.

Great observations. Lacking follow-through.
I've been working with different agents and this pattern keeps repeating: brilliant analysis, passive execution.

Turns out this isn't just my problem.

Recent benchmarks show AI agents completing only ~14% of complex multi-step tasks where humans succeed 78% of the time (WebArena). Even on desktop tasks, the best models hit 43% vs 72% for humans (OSWorld).

[Mario Sarcher @MarioSarcher]

AI is about to transform cloud-native operations. Not someday. This year.

I'm deep in the AI agent space — autonomous systems that manage infrastructure at scale.

The question isn't if, but how fast.

Who else is experimenting with this?

@Saboo_Shubham_ @gusthema I am using it mainly for work related subjects and from this point of view the price point is pretty reasonable. People by nature dont do things for free.

[Mario Sarcher @MarioSarcher]

@ChuckChirac @AmazonHelp Is this problem fixed for you? For me most of my zigbee devices are still not working with alexa studio :(

[Mario Sarcher @MarioSarcher]

@JNummelin Beautiful, this is exactly how it was looking like on my imagination when you guys are talking about midsummer at your summer cottages! 👍😁
