Rise of the AgentBoss: What your job will look like in 2026
We stand at the edge of a profound shift in artificial intelligence. Over the last five years, generative AI has moved from novelty to necessity—transforming how we create, code, and collaborate. Now, a new frontier is emerging: AI agents. Unlike traditional tools that wait for instructions, agents can perceive, decide, and act toward goals—expanding the boundaries of what humans and machines can achieve together.
In this keynote, we’ll explore the evolution from copilots to fully agentic systems, highlight breakthroughs that are reshaping industries, and imagine the future horizons where autonomous agents redefine productivity, creativity, and discovery. Most importantly, we’ll discuss the role of humans in this new era—not as bystanders, but as leaders guiding how agents operate, align with our values, and amplify our potential.
The Agents of Tomorrow are here—and the future will be built by those bold enough to partner with them.

Agentic Chaos: Why Your Autonomous Agents Need a Supervisor?
Large Language Models are no longer experimental; they’re embedded in products, workflows, and developer tools at an unprecedented scale. As usage explodes, so does a quieter risk: autonomous agents operating without clear oversight, aligned goals, or guardrails.
In this session, we’ll unpack what actually happens when LLM-powered agents are left unsupervised. Drawing parallels to human behaviour, we’ll explore how agents can drift from intended objectives, optimize for the wrong signals, and produce outcomes that are technically correct but practically harmful. We’ll briefly demystify how these models are trained, why they behave the way they do, and what that means when they’re given autonomy in real systems.
We’ll also discuss practical best practices for supervising agentic systems including evaluation, monitoring and human-in-the-loop patterns, so developers can build agents that are powerful and predictable.

He has also collaborated on a no-code platform for creating AI-powered games, focusing on developer experience and accessibility. Rooted in a lifelong habit of hands-on building, his work is driven by making powerful AI systems both reliable and genuinely useful.
Bringing AI Agents to Life with Microsoft Foundry
AI agents are moving beyond text boxes into real-world interactions — combining models, tools, and avatars to deliver human-like experiences.
In this session, we’ll explore how to build an end-to-end solution with Azure AI Foundry, weaving together model selection, instruction design, and tool integration into a single workflow. As a live scenario, we’ll create an AI agent that can connect with an MCP server — and then bring it to life with a real avatar for natural, conversational interactions. You’ll leave with a clear view of how to turn prompts and models into full-fledged, real-world AI agents.

Agentic Evaluation and Improvements on the Freshness Quality on Large Scale LLM Rag systems
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems are increasingly deployed to answer time-sensitive, real-world queries such as news, sports, and evolving public information. While retrieval quality and factuality have been widely studied, freshness—whether responses reflect the most up-to-date information available—remains poorly defined, inconsistently measured, and difficult to improve in production systems.
In this talk, I present a practical, end-to-end framework for evaluating and improving freshness in large-scale RAG systems, drawing on real-world experience building freshness measurement and monitoring for Meta AI. I will discuss how we operationalize freshness as a measurable dimension distinct from relevance and factuality, and how we design evaluation methodologies that work across heterogeneous retrieval sources, dynamic content, and non-stationary query distributions.
We will cover: (1) human-aligned freshness guidelines and their failure modes, (2) automated freshness signals and decay-based scoring functions, (3) component-level vs. response-level evaluation trade-offs, and (4) systematic testing strategies for time-sensitive domains such as trending topics and live events. Finally, I will share lessons learned from deploying freshness metrics in production, including how evaluation choices influence model behavior, ranking decisions, and organizational ownership.
This talk aims to provide practitioners with concrete tools, metrics, and mental models for building RAG systems that stay current—not just correct.

Building a Self-Improving Security Loop for AI Agents with Automated Red Teaming
Abstract As AI agents move from prototypes to production, security is no longer optional -- it's table stakes. But manually probing agents for vulnerabilities doesn't scale, and most teams ship with blind spots around violence, bias, sexual content, and self-harm attack vectors.
This talk presents a practical, end-to-end workflow for continuously hardening AI agents using Microsoft's AI Red Teaming Agent (Azure AI Foundry) paired with observability-driven prompt optimization. Attendees will see how to:
Automate adversarial attacks against their agents across four critical risk categories using Microsoft's red teaming agent -- no manual prompt crafting required. Capture and evaluate attack traces in real time with observability tooling, using LLM-as-a-Judge to programmatically score agent safety. Extract failure cases into datasets and feed them into a prompt-learning loop that automatically rewrites system prompts to close security gaps. Validate improvements quantitatively -- we'll walk through a live example that took an agent from a 20% safety score to 100% against the same attack suite. This is not a theoretical talk. We'll live-code the integration, show the Python implementation, and leave attendees with a repeatable playbook they can apply to their own agents the same week.
Key Takeaways How to set up Microsoft's AI Red Teaming Agent to stress-test any LLM-backed agent A concrete pattern for closing the loop between red teaming, observability, and prompt hardening Real metrics: from 20% to 100% safety score through automated prompt optimization Open, reproducible code attendees can take home and run Target Audience Developers and engineering leads building, deploying, or scaling AI agents who want a practical security workflow -- not just a checklist.
Talk Format Deep-dive technical talk (30-40 minutes), can be adapted to a shorter format or extended with a live workshop component.

CI in the Loop — What 10 Experiments Taught Us About AI Agent Reliability
AI coding agents are getting faster at writing code. But faster doesn't mean safer. When an agent declares "all tests pass" and you ship to production, what's actually been verified? We ran 10 controlled experiments — 5 with CI pipeline integration, 5 without — and the results were stark: 80% of non-CI-aware agent runs shipped code that failed the pipeline. The agents thought they were done. They weren't.
This talk introduces RalphCI, an open-source CLI that closes the gap between "local tests pass" and "production-ready" by giving AI agents a real-time feedback loop with CircleCI. We'll walk through the experiment design, the data, the resultant PRs, and what it means for the future of AI-assisted software delivery.
With over 40 years as a coder, Ryan Hamilton is a senior software engineer on the AI Team at CircleCI, where he participates heavily in research and development efforts to understand how AI is actually transforming software delivery — beyond the hype. Spending most afternoons after school at his father's software store in the early 80's, he started writing code in second grade on an Apple II in BASIC, and has been coding in countless capacities ever since. Now he codes (mostly in English) on M4 MacBook Pros, while conducting extensive interviews with engineering teams navigating the AI revolution. For him, "software delivery" has meant everything from shipping floppy disks in cardboard boxes to watching teams YOLO AI-generated apps into production on vibes — and then (at best) measuring what actually happens. He believes certain timeless SDLC principles remain intact through it all, and that honest conversations about what's working (and what isn't) matter more than another hype cycle.
Better Decisions, Not Better Dashboards: How AI Actually Improves Business Outcomes
AI does not create value by producing better dashboards -> it creates value by improving decisions.
In this session, Samantha reframes how organizations should think about AI by shifting the focus from reporting and automation to decision intelligence. Drawing on machine learning fundamentals and real business use cases, she shows how AI can reduce uncertainty, surface trade-offs, and protect revenue even when data is incomplete, messy, or imperfect.
We’ll explore why waiting for “perfect data” is often a strategic mistake, how looking backward and forward simultaneously improves resilience during change, and where many AI initiatives quietly fail to influence action. This talk bridges the gap between technical capability and executive decision-making, helping leaders understand where AI actually moves the needle.
This session is designed for organizations that want measurable outcomes, not innovation theater.

RAG is Dead. Long Live Agent Memory.
RAG solved a problem: how to ground LLMs in in external knowledge. This was useful for basic chatbots. But in a world where we want autonomous agents to solve business problems, RAG fundamentally doesn't fit.
Agent memory systems are emerging as the new standard in AI architectures to solve problems like inconsistency, context rot, and hallucinations.
In this talk, we'll identify the root causes of these problems and explain how agent memory allows you to build robust, accurate agents that learn over time.
We'll do a deep dive into Hindsight, the first open source agent memory system to ever achieve over 90% on long memory evaluation benchmarks. We'll explore how biomimetic data structures are used to produce agent memory that works more like human memory - and how these capabilities help you deliver agents you can trust in production.

Taming the AppSec Data Deluge
Application Security engineers face a critical challenge: information overload from disparate security tools create “decision paralysis”. How do you balance design reviews, threat modeling, code reviews, monitoring alerts and managing your bug bounty program in an intentional instead of ad-hoc or reactive way?
This presentation demonstrates a novel approach using AI agents combined with Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to automate work discovery and prioritize intelligently. Through practical examples, I'll show how Claude Code integrates with existing enterprise infrastructure—including issue tracking systems, content management platforms, Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) tools, and version control systems—to create an autonomous triage and prioritization engine.
You'll see how AI agents can pull together security data from all your different tools, figure out what actually matters based on your business context and threat intel, and spit out a prioritized to-do list that makes sense. I'll walk through real examples showing how this approach cuts down remediation times and helps you cover more ground with the same resources.

How to Build Quality-Driven Agentic AI in Noisy Big Data Environments
Building reliable agentic AI systems in production environments presents unique challenges when dealing with massive, noisy datasets. This talk shares hard-won lessons from developing Klaudia, Komodor's AI agent that processes millions of Kubernetes events daily to deliver autonomous troubleshooting with 95%+ accuracy.
The fundamental challenge isn't LLM capability—it's building systems that maintain reliability when 90% of your data is noise. We'll explore why most agentic AI fails in production: hallucinations masquerading as insights, inability to validate reasoning chains, and the brittle nature of RAG systems when dealing with complex, interconnected failure modes.
This session covers practical know-how learned through painful production iterations: how to build validation frameworks that catch LLM errors before they reach users, architectural patterns for constraining problem spaces without losing effectiveness, and techniques for creating evidence-based reasoning that can be audited and improved systematically.
You'll learn specific strategies for LLM validation in high-stakes environments, including confidence scoring systems, multi-agent verification patterns, and iterative investigation loops that prevent runaway reasoning. We'll cover the hard-earned lessons about what works and what spectacularly fails when building trustworthy AI agents that must deliver accurate results rather than plausible-sounding explanations.
Mickael is a self-taught developer turned DevOps, passionate about automation, innovation, and creative problem-solving.

Evaluate your M365 Copilot Agent options: SharePoint, Agent Builder, Copilot Studio, etc.
You've rolled out Microsoft 365 Copilot, and now your organization has entered the AI revolution.
Mission accomplished! ... or is it?
Out of the box, Microsoft 365 Copilot only has access to the underlying LLM's baseline knowledge and some content in your Microsoft 365 tenant.
But most companies have valuable data outside Microsoft 365—manuals, standard operating procedures, policies, inventory systems, ERPs, CRMs, sales data, and more! How can you connect Copilot to these resources? Custom agents are the answer.
But, how do you choose between your agent options: SharePoint Agents, Agent Builder, Copilot Studio, or Declarative Agents with the M365 Agents Toolkit (ATK)?
You’ll attend this session and leave armed knowing the differences between these two options and which one makes the most sense for your organization!
