That’s a huge difference and a bottleneck for next-gen systems, says Outshift by Cisco’s SVP and GM Vijoy Pandey.As he describes the current state of AI: Agents can be stitched together in a workflow or plug into a supervisor model — but there's no semantic alignment, no shared context. They’re essentially working from scratch each go-around. This calls for next-level... Read more ›
