Four Engineering Pillars for Reliable Agentic AI in Production

Bayer's PRINCE platform proves agentic AI reliability comes from engineering context and harness, not better prompts. Four replicable pillars — context engineering, harness engineering, layered reflection, structured retrieval — from a system live since 2024.

AI Outperforms Doctors in Two Nature Studies — But One Finding Undercuts the Whole Framing

MIRA diagnosed correctly 88.9% of the time vs 78.1% for specialists. Google's AMIE generated appropriate treatment plans 95% of the time vs 72% for physicians. But a single architectural result explains why the benchmarks may not hold.
