You give your AI coding agent a task. It gets to work. Thirty tool calls later you have code — and it’s not what you needed. The agent understood the words but missed the intent. It made a dozen small decisions that individually seemed reasonable, and collectively built the wrong thing. This isn’t a capability […]

Large Language Models (LLMs) all predict text, but they differ a lot in how they follow instructions, use context, handle tools, and optimize for safety, speed, or cost. If you treat them as interchangeable, you’ll ship brittle prompts. If you treat them as different runtimes with different affordances, you’ll get reliable results. This post explains the major differences across […]
