A smooth, unhindered path from idea to deployment. But what if that frictionless journey secretly leads to a cliff edge? That&rsquo;s the intriguing question Armin Ronacher, a software development veteran with <em>20 years</em> in the open-source space (and creator of the Python framework Flask!), and Cristina Poncela Cubeiro, a self-described &ldquo;native AI engineer,&rdquo; challenged us with. Their message is clear: in the age of AI agents, we need to <em>add a little bit of friction</em> back into our development process.</p>
