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.
