Listen Later

Straight from re:Invent 2025, technology leaders from C3 AI, nCino, New Relic and Vercel reveal learnings, best practices and predictions for the future of Agentic AI.

Topics Include:

  • Four technology executives introduce their companies' AI innovations in fintech, cloud, enterprise software, and observability.
  • Vercel built agents for code reviews, infrastructure optimization, and across finance, sales, and support functions.
  • C3.ai deploys enterprise AI applications from scratch to production in six months for Fortune 500s.
  • New Relic provides observability for AI systems and built agents that resolve infrastructure issues in real-time.
  • Vercel's agents improve code quality by incorporating security and framework best practices into AI-generated output.
  • C3.ai partnered with Department of Defense to autonomously produce mission-critical intelligence assessment reports from data.
  • Industry shifted from copilots everywhere to agents that actually own outcomes and land the plane.
  • New Relic moved beyond natural language translation to agents that execute actions and resolve issues autonomously.
  • Panel debates whether Model Context Protocol or broader ecosystem approaches better enable agent interoperability and communication.
  • Autonomy requires accountability: agent decisions must be explainable with traceable steps and replay capabilities built-in.
  • Governance and security should be prerequisites for acceleration, not impediments—a critical mental model shift needed.
  • Many enterprises struggle with process bottlenecks preventing them from harnessing high-quality agents despite having technology.
  • Financial services must carefully balance where human discretion remains essential versus where agent autonomy justified.
  • Will Jung envisions deeply continuous context enabling banks to deliver truly personalized insights without appearing creepy.
  • Suraj Krishnan predicts agents will own outcomes by 2026, coordinating tools and other agents to achieve goals.
