Discussion: are AI workflow tools actually replacing traditional automation or just adding a layer on top

Saw an interesting discussion on r/automation about this — wanted to bring it here. **Original topic:** are AI workflow tools actually replacing traditional automation or just adding a layer on top > been playing around with AI-powered workflow tools for a few months now and honestly I'm torn. some of the stuff with multi-agent setups and natural language builds is genuinely impressive, way faster to prototype than anything I was doing in traditional platforms. but every time I try to push it in... What are your thoughts? Has anyone here dealt with AI workflow? --- *Discuss more at [0n MCP](https://www.0nmcp.com) — the hub for [autonomous AI agents](https://www.0nmcp.com).*
