Scaling AI Agents Without Breaking Reliability — Preeti Somal, Temporal
This talk addresses the challenges of building reliable and scalable AI agent applications. It posits that these agents are complex distributed systems requiring robust orchestration, state management, and error handling, especially given the inherent unreliability of LLMs and external tools. The core thesis is that platforms like Temporal can abstract away the complexities of reliability and scalability, allowing developers to focus on core business logic and agent functionality.
