The Analytics Engineering Podcast

The pragmatic guide to AI agents in the enterprise (w/ Sean Falconer)


Listen Later

What does it mean to be agentic? Is there a spectrum of agency? 

In this episode of The Analytics Engineering Podcast, Tristan Handy talks to Sean Falconer, senior director of AI strategy at Confluent, about AI agents. They discuss what truly makes software "agentic," where agents are successfully being deployed, and how to conceptualize and build agents within enterprise infrastructure. 

Sean shares practical ideas about the changing trends in AI, the role of basic models, and why agents may be better for businesses than for consumers. This episode will give you a clear, practical idea of how AI agents can change businesses, instead of being a vague marketing buzzword.
