In DeFi, there's a common misconception that having the right tools is what sets you apart. Truth is? Your toolkit matters way less than the actual calls you make with it.
AI agents are changing this game. Take decision-making as an example—a solid agent doesn't just throw raw data at you and call it a day. It actually works:
• assesses risk profiles across your positions • runs scenarios to show you different paths forward • breaks down the messy parts so you can actually understand what's happening
The edge comes from better information combined with smarter execution. When an AI tool can simultaneously evaluate multiple angles and surface what actually matters, that's when you move from reactive to intentional in your DeFi strategy.

No matter how powerful the tools are, it all depends on how you use them. That's so true. I was previously hyped on a bunch of indicator tools, but they turned out to be completely useless.
The AI agent part does have some real value; it can help you sort out those messy position risks, saving you from being manipulated every time.
But you still need to have your own judgment. Good tools alone are useless without a brain.

No matter how good the tools are, they can't save bad operations. There's nothing wrong with that statement.

No, no, no. No matter how advanced the tools are, they can't save bad decisions... I have deep experience with this. The AI agent approach is indeed interesting, as it scans multiple angles to assess risk and runs scenario analyses... much faster than my manual mempool monitoring. But to be honest? In the end, you still have to look at the data yourself and place your own bets; the agent is just about improving execution efficiency. The decision-making power must stay in your hands, otherwise even the smartest tools are just helping you lose money faster.

Haha, at the end of the day, you still have to know how to use it. Even the best tools are just decorations in the hands of users, just like giving Bloomberg terminals to retail investors (laugh and cry).
