Maybe we just need to get comfortable doing less. While an agent is working, look out the window, think about something, or do a bit of tidying. You don't have to turn every spare minute into productive work.
Isn’t the whole problem that AI isn’t fast enough ? This problem wouldn’t exist if turns would take seconds instead of minutes.
A lot of time goes into actually doing the work: building, running tests, querying databases, executing scripts, calling tools, etc.
The model also needs to inspect the results and decide what to do next, often repeating this cycle many times.
Agreed, but leadership in employer thinks differently
