As a Principal Solutions Architect at AWS, I architect transformative cloud solutions that drive business outcomes, with deep expertise in Machine Learning and Generative AI. My evolution from hands-on developer to enterprise architect gives me a unique lens for building scalable, efficient solutions that bridge technical excellence with business value.

Making My Website AI-Agent Friendly โ€” Here's What Changed

The Test That Failed

Last weekend, I pointed an AI agent at my own blog and asked it a simple question about an article I’d just published โ€” my hands-on experiment with self-reflection on Amazon Bedrock [12]: “What scored 3/15 and why?”

The agent received 29,099 bytes of HTML. After stripping navigation, CSS, scripts, headers, and footers, only about 4,600 characters of actual content remained โ€” 69% of the response was noise. The agent consumed 6,083 input tokens, then gave a confused answer about “personal growth.” It couldn’t find the article content buried in the markup.

The Saturday Morning Experiment

Last Saturday, I installed a Python library, pointed it at Amazon Bedrock, and asked a model the same questions three times โ€” with zero, one, and three rounds of self-reflection.

The results surprised me.

  Q  Refl   Time  Acc  Comp  Nuan  Total
  1     0   3.0s    4     3     3     10
  1     1   5.5s    4     2     3      9
  1     3   8.8s    4     3     4     11
  2     0   2.6s    4     2     2      8
  2     1   5.7s    4     2     2      8
  2     3   8.5s    4     2     2      8
  3     0   3.1s    1     1     1      3
  3     1   5.2s    1     1     1      3
  3     3   8.6s    1     1     1      3

Q is the question number, Refl the number of self-reflection rounds (0 = straight answer, 1 = one revision, 3 = three revisions). Acc, Comp, and Nuan are the judge’s scores for Accuracy, Completeness, and Nuance โ€” each on a 1-5 scale, 15 max total.

The Moment I Almost Gave Up

A few weeks ago, I spent 45 minutes teaching my AI agent how to prepare customer meetings. Pulling context from Slack, checking the CRM, looking up LinkedIn profiles, assembling a briefing document. I could have done it myself in 20 minutes.

The next morning, the agent prepared three meetings in 12 minutes. By the end of the week, it had prepared every meeting for five days โ€” while I was still drinking my coffee.
