In their fifth Reflections episode, Steve and Leon look back across six conversations (Matt Truppo at Sanofi, Ted Shortliffe, Barry Chaiken, David Hidalgo-Gato, and Danny van Leeuwen) to ask a sharper question: how specialized does AI have to be to actually work? The throughline is depth. The LLM is a commodity, and so, increasingly, is the generalist agent. What stays scarce is specialization in a workflow, the revival of symbolic methods like knowledge graphs, the literacy that separates an AI's ~95% solo accuracy from the under-35% people get using it themselves, and leaders willing to use themselves as the test rig. After 37 episodes, the technology is no longer the question. The specificity of the work around it is.
