What Worked Yesterday May Misbehave Tomorrow
Automation is the backbone of modern workflows. But there’s a big difference between relying on AI in live automation and sticking with fixed scripts on cron.
AI live automation feels smart and adaptive, but it’s unpredictable. What worked yesterday may misbehave tomorrow. Models drift, APIs change, or inputs shift, and suddenly your “intelligent” system starts acting irrationally. Debugging becomes a nightmare.
Cron + fixed scripts are boring and that’s their strength. They do the same thing, the same way, every time. Predictable. Auditable. Safe.
The real risk is over-relying on AI where stability matters most. Use it where adaptability brings real value, but keep the backbone simple and reliable. Sometimes the smartest move is… not being too smart.
