Why the agent stack is going open — and where it isn't yet.
‍Not a conference. Not a pitch fest. This is a panel of AI leaders working through training and inference decisions, architectural choices, and strategic bets.

Emergence, Nous Research, and Traversal. Three teams making very different bets on what gets opened up in the agent stack and what stays locked down. Open post-training and model behavior. Agent orchestration. Autonomous production debugging. Three layers, three philosophies, and a real conversation about where open is winning, where closed still holds, and what that means for anyone building right now.

Expect technical depth and honest takes in an entrepreneurial atmosphere. Engage in audience Q&A that goes somewhere. Arrive early and stick around after to connect with our speakers, CTOs and technical teams asking the same questions you are.
