According to Ushur, treating AI agents like standard software—something to buy, configure, and “set and forget”—can create challenges, especially in regulated industries such as healthcare, financial services, and insurance. Unlike deterministic software, AI agents interpret, reason, and act within environments, making them function more like digital co-workers than hard-wired applications.
