Perhaps I'm biased since we're in a document heavy industry, but I think the original post misses a lot of the non-tech company use cases. An insane percentage of human time is spent copy pasting things from documents.
1. Batch/Pipeline: Processing a ton of things, with no oversight. Document parsing, content moderation, etc.
2. AI Features: An app calls out to an AI-powered function. Grammarly might pass out a document for a summary, a CMS might want to generate tags for a post, etc.
3. Agents: AI manages the control flow.
So much of discussion online is heavily focused towards agents so that skews the macro view, but these patterns are pretty distinct.
