You Probably Don’t Need an Agent Framework

# You Probably Don't Need an Agent Framework Most companies building AI applications are overcomplicating things by using fancy "agent" tools when they'd be better off with straightforward, step-by-step workflows built with basic Python. The article argues that if you know exactly what you want your AI to do—like process an invoice, then extract data, then send a notification—you don't need complex frameworks; simple code that follows a clear path works better and is easier to maintain. This matters because it means your AI projects could be faster to build, cheaper to run, and less likely to go wrong.
