Mollick Describes Gap Between AI Agents and Perception

Ethan Mollick posted that agents have reached a large gap between actual AI abilities and public perception. He wrote that exponential gains are widening this gap over time. Agents have become capable of long-running self-organized work, he stated, which requires a new approach to AI. The comments appear in a tweet linking to his Substack article Agency and Agents From the Hugging Face Incident to Twilight Factories on oneusefulthing.org.
