Agent vs. Swarm: Why Your First "Digital Employee" Will Fail (And How to Build the Factory That Wins)
09 Nov 2025
AI Overview:This is the "how-to" guide for 90% of the world. We'll build our first "digital factory" using the public cloud (like AWS or Google Cloud) and the "Public Brains" from Podcast 1.We'll start by hiring our first Autonomous AI Agent—a single "digital employee." We'll build its "engine" (using LangChain) and its "memory" (using a Vector DB), and watch it complete a task....And then we'll watch it fail.We'll show you the limits of a single agent—how it breaks, how it costs a fortune in "runaway" FinOps, and why it can't handle complex work.This failure will force us to invent the "factory" itself. We'll scale up to a Cloud-Native Swarm. We'll replace our single agent with a "digital assembly line" of specialized, micro-service agents. We'll build the "conveyor belt" (using AWS SQS) and the "orchestrator" (using AWS Step Functions) to create a resilient, scalable, and governable workforce.This is the story of The Agent vs. The Swarm.
