Why agents fail in production: right data, missing tacit judgment
Anxious-Variation508 · reddit · 2026-09-04
The author diagnoses why their agents fail in production: agents access the right data but lack the reasoning behind how humans use that data to decide. The hardest real-world cases depend on tacit judgment—exceptions, tradeoffs, and unwritten rules never captured in systems of record. Without these decision traces, agents excel on predictable tasks but break down on ambiguity and edge cases.
