Ask HN: How are agentic workflows meant to offset AI debt?

I don t know quite how to put it. But projects I inherit and am supposed to get over the line have this same strange quality: they are undesigned .I believe this may be because processes and context-related code that was previously considered with basic design principles and functionality seem not so much to be missing, but they have they seem to be simulated. Giving the impression of being considered, which is quite difficult for a project manager to catch.So I m now spending a lot more time now going back and design undesigned work. Rebuilding things manually, which people at the project management level just do not think won t take you that long . Which I attribute to this insidious problem of things looking like they were designed.How is this meant to work when deployed at scale? When there is so much technical debt generated by AI, do the efficiency gains actually start to be losses?I m not sure how agentic workflows can actually solve this. It seems as if you can have agents doing stuff, but they re still going to get a lot wrong and you ll need to drop someone in and rebuild.
