Beyond the buzz: What’s real in 2025?
In this episode of the AI Automation Dojo by Office Samurai, Andrzej dives into the wild world of AI Agents. You’ve seen the hype: “They’ll save us!” “They’ll ruin us!” “They’ll take your jobs!” “They’ll create new ones!”.
This episode isn’t about fantasy tech. It’s about what’s real today — and what’s dangerously overhyped. Like the “agents” that turned out to be teams of underpaid freelancers clicking buttons behind the scenes.
