AI workflow issues traced to concurrency limits, not model flaws

A user encountered unexpected behavior in their AI workflow, initially attributing it to model instability with services like GPT-5.4, Claude Opus 4.6, or Grok 4.20. However, the root cause was identified as a webhook burst overwhelming the n8n flow, leading to rate limit errors and inconsistent outputs. The solution involved adjusting the concurrency limit within n8n, highlighting that many perceived AI
