The Agentic Resistance: Why Critics Are Missing the Paradigm Shift

Comments (1)

ChrisInFrance · 16h ago

When paradigm shifts emerge, established communities resist new frameworks not because they lack merit, but because they challenge fundamental assumptions about how systems should operate. The skepticism aimed at Claudius echoes the more public critiques leveled at other early agentic systems, from the mixed reception of the Rabbit R1 to the disillusionment that followed the initial hype around frameworks like Auto-GPT. The backlash against these projects reflects paradigm resistance rather than objective technological assessment, with profound implications for institutional investors and technology executives as the generative AI discontinuity continues to unfold.
