The whole “Truths about AI Agents” type title seems to be pretty popular these days. And it’s no different this week. This one is about AI Agents and banks. Honestly, I am surprised that banks are using agents at all, as one of the most highly regulated industries, I expect finance to be slow to adopt technology.

  1. A Bank Guy’s Perspective on AI Agents

    1. Click in for the real title, I think it’s a bit too “market-y” but it seems to draw people in!

    2. OP claims to have built 50+ AI Agents for banks over the last 12 months, and he basically says that these complex agents people are into are useless at the moment, a sentiment we’ve heard a lot

    3. Great discourse in the comments about the legitimacy of the post, and it’s been flagged for spam 👀 + someone called it out as an AI generated post

  2. Best Agents You’ve seen in 2025 (so far)

    1. First comment lists five:

      1. Clay

      2. Windsurf

      3. Frizerly

      4. Intercom Fin

      5. V0 by Vercel

    2. I also like Cline quite a bit because it lets me bring my own API code and still will take actions (unlike Cursor)

    3. The Windsurf comment is surprising, I just saw someone rage about it in another thread on some other platform

  3. E-Commerce Sales are Tanking

    1. Yep

    2. Google is not as popular as it used to be

    3. Even my non-technical wife asked me to “ChatGPT” something recently and not to Google it

    4. If you want to index, you should try LLMText or NLWeb
