The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

Like, too much time, right?

The Neuron: AI Explained

How do I scale this to be something that is as reliable and as consistent

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

as a normal AI application.

The Neuron: AI Explained

That's where a lot of, that is, yeah.

The Neuron: AI Explained

It's a great question.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

There's a couple of things that we need to think about.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

Firstly, the memory is a big one.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

How do we ensure that the agent is learning over time?

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

We need to make it more flexible in its learning.

And that in itself is a whole area.

The Neuron: AI Explained

What memory do you attach it to?

The Neuron: AI Explained

How much do you keep?

The Neuron: AI Explained

And also, where it gets to a point where the agent has too many memory and too many tools and gets confused.

The Neuron: AI Explained

Those are probably big things in terms of memory.

The Neuron: AI Explained

But one of the things that I think about a lot is in terms of the tool calling and the guardrails around that.

One

The Neuron: AI Explained

one of the big things with agents was let's give them all the tools, right?

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

And now we've got to a point where we can give them all the tools, but as anyone who's built agents in production will find, you give your agent all the tools, it might have a problem picking which tools it's got, yours should use.

The Neuron: AI Explained
AI Inference: Why Speed Matters More Than You Think (with SambaNova's Kwasi Ankomah)

And people figuring out that balance for their, between building like a generalist agent that does everything

The Neuron: AI Explained

So like an agent that basically manages your call center is going to be a really big shift.
