Dr. Vijoy Pandey returns to the show to talk to Jon Krohn about Cisco’s work to advance medicine and mitigate the impact of climate change with distributed artificial super-intelligence. Dr. Vijoy Pandey believes in a future where humans and AI agents work together to tackle our biggest challenges. For this to happen, we will need to have multi-agent systems and open-source platforms that let agents work together, avoiding the phenomenon of AI agents being “isolated geniuses” unable to collaborate. He elaborates on what Cisco is doing to close this gap.
