A deep dive into building sophisticated voice agents using OpenAI's Realtime API and Agents SDK. The session covers architectural patterns like chained vs. end-to-end models, the use of multi-agent systems with handoffs for specialized tasks, and best practices for production including debugging with traces, implementing guardrails, and creating robust evaluations.
A deep dive into building agentic systems using OpenAI's latest APIs. The session covers the core concept of 'agentic tool calling' (reasoning + tools), outlines a four-part framework (Agent, Infrastructure, Product, Evaluation) for designing long-horizon tasks, and provides a hands-on demonstration of building a non-blocking task processing system with a real-time progress UI.
The panel discusses KPMG's 100-page prompt for its TaxBot, debating the future of prompt engineering versus fine-tuning. They also analyze OpenAI's potential move into selling cloud infrastructure, the impressive capabilities of Google's new image model, Nano-Banana, and new AI-powered fan experiences at the US Open.
Ben Lorica and Evangelos Simoudis analyze three pivotal AI trends: the "Great Hollowing Out" of entry-level jobs, the financial disconnect between AI hardware depreciation and its useful life, and OpenAI's strategic shift to router-based models in the quest for a sustainable business model.
Experts from IBM discuss Perplexity's audacious bid for Google Chrome, analyzing it as a strategic marketing move and debating the browser's future as a key platform for enterprise AI. They also explore the future of generative video, questioning if it's a consumer or enterprise feature while highlighting critical IP and ethical hurdles. Finally, they assess the GPT-5 release, countering claims of an AI plateau and discussing user attachment to older models and the shift towards software-defined AI systems.
SemiAnalysis CEO Dylan Patel discusses the shifting AI landscape, covering OpenAI's strategic open-source release, the fierce competition to challenge Nvidia's dominance, the consolidation of neoclouds, and the geopolitical implications of the global AI infrastructure buildout.
