TechCrunch's Google AI-security confusion signal shows why agentic services need operating systems: ownership, gates, security review, and production hardening around AI work.
The canonical RFE Online insight hub for AI Code Production Hardening: why AI-built MVPs need production audit, testing, security, refactoring, and launch readiness.
