> Engineering-wise building agents with agent essentially is a different skill patterns than building software with agents

Why would that be different?



Because agents is different than conventional software:

1. They behave differently: non-deterministic vs deterministic

2. They have different mechanism: harness+llms vs codes+apis

3. They have different interfaces: clicking vs chatting

They are like boston dynamics robots vs humans


Pi is just the harness. I think in case of the article that is what they mean when they say agent.

You can write one in 200 lines of code. Just a TUI for an api.
