For more than two decades, digital discovery has operated on a simple model: search, scan, click, decide. That worked when humans were the ones doing the web searching; but with the advent of AI agents, the primary consumer of information is no longer always human.This is giving rise to a new paradigm: Answer engine optimization (AEO), also referred to as generative engine optimization (GEO). Because agents look at data much differently than humans do, success is no longer defined by rankings and clicks, bu

For the past eighteen months, the corporate world has been obsessed with the "builder" phase of the generative AI revolution. Enterprises have raced to deploy autonomous agents to handle everything from customer support to complex codebase refactoring. However, as these digital workers proliferate, a new, more structural problem has emerged: fragmentation. Agents built on LangChain cannot easily hand off tasks to those built on CrewAI; a Salesforce-embedded agent has no... Read more

Critics pointed to a measurable shift in behavior, alleging that the model had moved from a... Read more

The most expensive AI failure I have seen in enterprise deployments did not produce an error. No alert fired. No dashboard turned red. The system was fully operational, it was just consistently, confidently wrong. That is the reliability gap. And it is the problem most enterprise AI programs are not built to catch.We have spent the last two years getting very good at evaluating models: benchmarks, accuracy scores, red-team exercises,...
