Processes that needed a whole team run in a few clicks.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They&rsquo;re shipping faster, debugging smarter, and finding patterns in data that would have taken weeks to spot manually.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hence the bar. The agents handle the work, they take care of the rest.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sounds like they&rsquo;ve got it all figured out, right? Not even close.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Agents skip steps, suggest partners that have already been contacted, hallucinate details about YouTube channels, and propose code fixes that would definitely take down a whole system.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the four is even in a full-on beef with an AI agent that&rsquo;s developed an attitude.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&rsquo;s beautiful chaos. Here&rsquo;s what it all actually looks like.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading h-t-title-2\" id=\"h-the-things-theyve-built\">The things they&rsquo;ve built<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eyl&uuml;l G&uuml;lery&uuml;z is an AI engineer, which is a job title that didn&rsquo;t even exist a few years ago. It sounds like a fancy title from the future that just showed up early.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it kind of is. She has 10 agents running in parallel on any given day, each on a different task. Her job used to be 80% her and 20% AI. That ratio has completely flipped. Now, she&rsquo;s a &ldquo;manager of agents.&rdquo;<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;My entire development process is automated,&rdquo; she says.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;I don&rsquo;t even open Jira to pick a task anymore. I have AI workflows that figure out the most impactful things to work on, suggest where to start, and then we just&hellip; go. I confirm the plan, and from there it handles everything all the way to having a pull request ready for me to review.&rdquo;<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What does all this sorcery actually involve?<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She calls it &ldquo;harness engineering&rdquo; &ndash; building the systems that let LLMs perform tasks in the smartest and most efficient way possible.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;Most of my time goes into creating the right environment for the models, testing everything thoroughly, and figuring out new ways to push the results further. It&rsquo;s a lot more engineering than magic words.&rdquo;<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"6aad36b4ddff9\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6aad36b4ddff9\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1110\" height=\"1110\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul1-scaled.jpeg\/public\" alt=\"Eyl&uuml;l G&uuml;lery&uuml;z, AI engineer at Hostinger, smiling and looking to the side\" class=\"wp-image-10166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul1-scaled.jpeg\/w=1110,fit=scale-down 1110w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul1-scaled.jpeg\/w=300,fit=scale-down 300w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul1-scaled.jpeg\/w=1024,fit=scale-down 1024w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul1-scaled.jpeg\/w=150,fit=scale-down 150w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul1-scaled.jpeg\/w=768,fit=scale-down 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" \/><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" data-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Someone who&rsquo;s also running a fleet of agents is Karolis Varnelis.

Well, several.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;I have a lead sourcing agent that helps find potential influencer partners. A team performance analysis agent that highlights key insights.

And a content quality agent that checks whether YouTube integrations include all the key details.&rdquo;<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five agents, each with a specific job.

So we have conversations like, &lsquo;You do have access.&rsquo; &lsquo;I don&rsquo;t have access.&rsquo; &lsquo;Yes, you do.&rsquo; And then suddenly it finds the tool and continues.&rdquo;<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&rsquo;s like working with someone who has selective amnesia but unlimited confidence.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Is she throwing it out? No. She&rsquo;s breaking the workflow into smaller pieces, restructuring the logic, and simplifying things.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;Sometimes the problem isn&rsquo;t that AI can&rsquo;t do something.

His lead sourcing agent keeps suggesting partners already in their system, even when told not to.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;Quite often, AI provides leads that have already been shared before, even when you clearly tell it not to,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;You always need to double-check, because mistakes or incorrect information can still happen.&rdquo;<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"6aad36b4e1b1f\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6aad36b4e1b1f\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/ugnius2.jpeg\/public\" alt=\"Ugnius &Scaron;mai&#382;ys smiling while wearing a VR headset\" class=\"wp-image-10173\"><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" data-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And Ugnius has caught something more dangerous.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;AI can struggle with systems where small details have a lot of consequences. I&rsquo;ve had cases where it correctly found the cause of a problem and suggested a fix that looked completely reasonable, but because I knew the system well, I could see that one small part of the change could break something much bigger.&rdquo;<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The code was technically correct in isolation. It would have been very wrong in context. Good luck getting an AI to spot that one.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading h-t-title-2\" id=\"h-the-stuff-they-keep-for-themselves\">The stuff they keep for themselves<\/h2><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They&rsquo;re all deep in AI, but every one of them has drawn a line where they&rsquo;ve decided: this stays with me.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ugnius&rsquo;s line is clear. He won&rsquo;t delegate the thinking about <em>why<\/em> something is broken.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Case in point: a recurring stability issue had been hitting his systems every few weeks. He could have patched it each time with AI.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But Ugnius isn&rsquo;t the patching type. He dug through the configuration, the logs, what the application was actually doing, and eventually traced the behavior back far enough to realize the system was storing a lot of data it didn&rsquo;t need.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI can find a fix. It can&rsquo;t decide whether the fix is worth finding, or whether the real problem is somewhere else entirely.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ugnius can because he&rsquo;s across multiple projects at Hostinger, not just his own. He sees how systems connect, and how a change in one place ripples through others.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Eyl&uuml;l has a similar instinct. She won&rsquo;t let AI anywhere near architecture planning for new initiatives.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;I&rsquo;ll use AI to help build individual pieces, but I don&rsquo;t trust it to design and plan the whole thing for me.&rdquo;<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The overall design stays hers. She&rsquo;s also the one who, despite having automated most of her workflow, still makes a point of talking directly to customers.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&ldquo;There&rsquo;s something really valuable about understanding who&rsquo;s actually using what you build every day,&rdquo; she says.<\/p><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When everything else runs through agents, she&rsquo;s deliberately keeping one channel human to stay connected to the bigger picture.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure data-wp-context='{\"imageId\":\"6aad36b4e2b53\"}' data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6aad36b4e2b53\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1110\" height=\"1110\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul2-scaled.jpeg\/public\" alt=\"Eyl&uuml;l G&uuml;lery&uuml;z in a thinking pose with her finger on her chin\" class=\"wp-image-10167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul2-scaled.jpeg\/w=1110,fit=scale-down 1110w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul2-scaled.jpeg\/w=300,fit=scale-down 300w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul2-scaled.jpeg\/w=1024,fit=scale-down 1024w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul2-scaled.jpeg\/w=150,fit=scale-down 150w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/LqiWLm-3MGbYHtFuUbcBtA\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/eylul2-scaled.jpeg\/w=768,fit=scale-down 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" \/><button class=\"lightbox-trigger\" type=\"button\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" data-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\" data-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewbox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\"><\/path>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n<\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Karolis still evaluates YouTube channels manually.
