Panel Discussion: Agents in the Wild: Real-World Deployments and Lessons Learned
summary
Hosts describe concrete deployments: a hosted MCP agent platform, AMD running models via Lemonate and CPU/GPU choices, and Microsoft building observability tools and red teaming. Successful use cases are productivity and coding assistants, audits and customer relation bots, and background ambient agents. Lessons are to run task specific evals, design for non deterministic model failure, add human in the loop and guardrails, and beware runaway costs — one loop costed $40,000 over 11 days.
