NEW by SR Expert at Insight Jam Robert Eve: Why Can’t We Be Friends? AI Agent Collaboration in Data Engineering
Will we become the horse at the advent of the horseless carriage? Or the bookkeeper with the advent of financial software? Steve Jobs once said, “Great things in business are never done by one person. They’re done by a team of people.” Today, perhaps Steve would amend his statement to say, “Great things in business are never done by one person. They’re done by a team of people and agents.”
NEW by SR Expert at Insight Jam Monica Kay Royal: AI Needs to be Supervised
In Kant’s moral theory, autonomy is a quality of rational agents that act and make choices based on their own reason. Merriam-Webster defines autonomy as the quality or state of being self-governing, self-directing freedom, and especially moral independence. When it comes to artificial intelligence, the definition gets a little foggy.
NEW by SR Expert at Insight Jam Samir Sharma: Strategy Meets Autonomy: How to Align People, Data & Agents
It is true, that we have used ML which as you know is a subset of AI, but the most widely known and probably the most successful, perhaps. Many believe that AI (or ML in this instance) has shifted from making recommendations to making decisions. The big hype is that Agents are no longer support tools; they’re actors in your business.
