3 Critical Pitfalls in Intelligent Agent Development (And How Simplicity Wins)

Three Practical Pitfalls in Intelligent Agent Development: Returning to a Philosophy of Simplicity In today’s era of rapid artificial intelligence (AI) advancement, intelligent agent development has become a key focus for technical teams. However, many development teams are drawn to flashy-sounding concepts during the agent-building process. After investing significant time and resources, they often find these concepts fail to deliver expected results. This article explores the three most common “tempting pitfalls” in intelligent agent development—multi-agent collaboration, index-based Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) technology, and over-reliance on overly long instructions. It analyzes the practical problems with these approaches and provides proven solutions. …
