Multi-Agent Systems for the Misinformation Lifecycle

A detailed overview of a modular, five-agent system designed to combat the entire lifecycle of digital misinformation. Based on an ICWSM research paper, this practitioner's guide details the roles of the Classifier, Indexer, Extractor, Corrector, and Verifier agents. The system emphasizes scalability, explainability, and high precision, moving beyond the limitations of single-LLM solutions. The talk covers the complete blueprint, from agent coordination and MLOps to holistic evaluation and optimization strategies for production environments.

Collaborative AI Agents At OpenAI

Robert from OpenAI discusses the critical role of structured evaluations (evals) and graders for developing advanced collaborative agents. He explores the limitations of 'vibe-based' assessments, introduces a maturity model for evals, and presents a comprehensive rubric for measuring agent performance beyond simple accuracy, connecting these concepts to the power of Reinforcement Fine-Tuning (RFT).

The Limits of Today’s AI Models

Karan Goel, CEO of Cartesia, discusses the fundamental limitations of Transformer architectures, arguing they behave more like retrieval systems than learning systems. He explains how State Space Models (SSMs) enable compression and abstraction, and why Cartesia is tackling multimodal intelligence by first solving for voice AI, aiming to develop a transferable 'recipe' for end-to-end representation learning.
