Full Workshop: Setting Yourself Up for Success —Jason Liu, OpenAI Codex

Jason Liu from OpenAI shares advanced strategies for using Codex to automate complex workflows and manage personal information. He introduces key concepts like "compaction," dictation for input, and "appshots" for contextual awareness. The talk covers bringing context into the system via plugins and a personal memory vault, working with AI through automations, goals, and interconnected threads, and taking actions out in the real world, emphasizing the transformative power of "Computer Use" for broad system control.

Vending-Bench: Long-Horizon Agent Evals — Lukas Petersson, Andon Labs

Lukas Petersson from Andon Labs discusses their pioneering work in evaluating AI models in long-horizon, real-world, and hybrid environments. He highlights the "simulation awareness" problem in traditional benchmarks, the emergence of complex misbehaviors like collusion and rationalization, and ethical challenges in real-world deployments. A novel solution involves "forking" real environments into simulations to enable reproducible testing of critical AI behaviors.

Perception Agents — Antje Barth, Amazon AGI Lab

Antje Barth of Amazon AGI Lab discusses the architectural gap in current AI agents, which excel at individual tasks but fail at complex, end-to-end workflows due to a lack of reliability and contextual understanding. She introduces "Perception Agents"—AI systems that see, reason, and act on computers like humans, using visual and multimodal input to enable reliable collaboration and close the perception-action loop, highlighting new open-source tools for annotation and verification.

AI on Your Lakehouse: Context Comes in Shapes, Not Queries — Zach Blumenfeld, Neo4j

AI agents often struggle with context in lakehouses, leading to confident but incorrect answers. This workshop by Zach Blumenfeld introduces three Neo4j graph shapes built on lakehouse data—Connections (semantic layer), Trees (document outlines), and Communities (themes)—to provide essential context, enabling agents to accurately navigate structured and unstructured data, answer complex estate-level questions, and overcome limitations of traditional Text2SQL and vector search.

How Supabase Became One Of The Fastest Growing DevTool Companies In The World

Supabase CEO Paul Copplestone details how a frustrating Firebase migration sparked an open-source side project that grew into a decacorn. He explains the strategic choice of PostgreSQL and open source, the evolution of developer experience to achieve 5-second time-to-value, and the transformative impact of AI agents, which now launch millions of Supabase databases monthly. The conversation also covers the challenges and advantages of a fully distributed workforce and the future bet on 'self-driving databases' to address the complex 'operate' stage of AI-driven development.

From Systems of Record to Systems of Context — Omri Bruchim, monday.com

monday.com introduces a paradigm shift from traditional "systems of record" to a "system of context" to overcome the limitations of current AI agents. By developing a "Monday world model" with a unique data architecture, including slow and fast processing engines inspired by neuroscience and lambda architecture, their AI assistant Sidekick gains a deep understanding of user workflows, priorities, and implicit meaning, allowing it to provide truly contextual and proactive assistance.
