At my large tech company, we're all being pushed to use AI. I, and most people I work with, have had success using the chatbots and Cursor-style tools and more recently Claude Code to accelerate the process of writing code.

Yet, with a few people in my network, it's like they're living 10 years ahead. Guys are automating everything in their jobs, spinning up 10 specialized agents at a time and running multi-agent pipelines, just doing all sorts of crazy things with this tech that I just can't even fathom. It seems like it's making them way more productive.

I have found a way to fit code-writing and question-answering chatbots into my workflow. I have NOT done the same in terms of these crazy Agent setups. There's clearly a way to leverage these tools to turbocharge your productivity, like at least 2x or maybe even 10x. But what is it?

Are there any Agentic power users out there who can enlighten me? What are the best ways to take advantage of these new tools?
