Agentic AI: The Future of Intelligent Systems

Episode 64 : Why LLMs and Coding Copilots Are Failing to Deliver the Promised Value

In this episode, we step back from the hype and take an honest look at why LLMs and coding copilots haven’t lived up to the claims of productivity revolutions and autonomous engineering.

From hallucinated logic and brittle architecture to context loss and duplicated code, we unpack real-world failures surfaced in AI-generated production code — and explain why today’s tools still lack the judgment, systems thinking, and trade-off awareness that real software engineering demands.

We also explore the marketing narratives shaping expectations, and why benchmarks and demos obscure the true cost of using these tools at scale.
