Six Sessions on Agent Identity, Context Costs, and Open-Source AI
Who authorizes an agent's actions, and how do you keep context costs from spiraling? The QCon AI New York 2026 program committee has selected six sessions that get straight to these pressing questions. Expect practical discussions on agent identity, open-source inference, and the standards emerging to govern autonomous systems. Our recent coverage of General Compute's bet on inference chips beyond Nvidia shows the hardware side of this shift is equally worth exploring.
Taming AI's Real-World Demands: Agents, Evals, and Rising Token Costs
When AI hits production, code arrives faster than teams can review it, tokens start costing real money, and agents need permissions that actually hold. Engineers at QCon AI New York 2026 (December 15-16) are sharing how they manage these constraints, no theory, just what works. For a deeper look at how teams are building practical guardrails, see our piece on Anthropic restricting internal AI tests from live internet.
