Frontier models struggle to scope applied AI use cases chaining LLMs with deterministic workflows

A GTM engineer notes that while frontier models excel at promoting sub-agents, they are bad at scoping applied AI use cases that chain LLM calls with deterministic workflows. They often prescribe absurd I/O contract schemas for "consistency" that don't fit modern capabilities. Recommendation: use them for brainstorming and prototyping, but zoom in closely on inputs and prompts for best results.
