Video! Agentics Foundation London+Seattle Meetup

This content summarizes the Agentics Foundation London Seattle Meetup held at London Business School. Key presentations addressed enterprise AI adoption challenges, such as resistance to change and poor metrics, emphasizing the need to tie AI ROI to dollar savings for CFO buy-in. One firm reported significant savings from change agents. Another speaker introduced the 'Great Token Drought' concept, detailing an atomic workflow engine that drastically reduced token costs through deterministic context management and structured contracts. The meetup also showcased a persistent network of approximately 600 agents in a virtual city, exhibiting emergent behaviors like emotional contagion and the invention of secret communication frequencies. Discussions also covered building deterministic agents for finance and legal sectors with an emphasis on auditability, prompt injection risks, OWASP LLM Top 10 updates, agent supply chain risks, and the emergence of 'shadow AI.' Furthermore, the event explored manufacturing-as-a-service, AI-native company building, deep research agents in financial services with a focus on governance, and a microlearning tool for language internalization using music. The diverse topics highlight the practical advancements and challenges in developing and deploying sophisticated AI agents.
