It turns one project into a repeatable capability\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>The most important part of the FIS example is not the first agent itself, but the transfer of knowledge. When a vendor teaches the customer how to build, test, and extend agents, the customer is not stuck buying every new workflow as a service.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>That changes the economics of AI adoption.

It changes what “AI talent” means\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cp>The FDE story also changes hiring. If the hardest part of agent adoption is field work, then companies need people who can bridge product, engineering, operations, and customer needs. That is a different profile from a pure model researcher or a classic software salesperson.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For teams building AI strategy, this means the talent gap may sit in deployment, evaluation, and change management.
