The rapid emergence of numerous cloud-based agent deployment options has transformed a lack of solutions into an overwhelming array of choices.

Prompt engineering can often be faster and sufficient for tailoring AI assistants than deep integration or package-level optimization.

Emphasizes tailoring AI agents to specific company profiles using real-world census and O*NET data for more effective solutions.

Current OpenAI agent builder platforms lack real-world utility, so there's a need for more advanced connectors and truly useful agent ecosystems.
