Why this matters in practice

Enterprise-agent adoption depends on choosing bounded workflows, connecting the right operating context, and giving teams a clear way to evaluate results.

(We know the audio quality isn't great on this one :( But the conversation is still well worth it!)

Last week I hosted a fireside chat on what it actually takes to build AI agents in the enterprise with Natalie Meurer (Head of Agent Eng, Sierra), Harsh Trivedi (founding engineer, Mercor), Juhi Parekh (GM, Turing), and Kevin Lynch (Senior FDE, Fin).

We get into why new models aren't always better (and why you can't just swap in the latest release and assume your agent improves), how the data-labeling/RL environment business might only have a couple years left, why real-time voice-to-voice models still aren't production-ready, how cheaper inference is still causing prices to go up, how baking in a constellation of models into enterprise agents is so important for reliability,

and much, much, more!
