Many teams are seeing their new AI agents fail to deliver on their promise. The problem isn't the agent. The problem is the chaos it's forced to operate in. The smartest agent in the world will fail if it's working with bad data, messy context and no guardrails. 🗞️ Here's how Port can help: https://lnkd.in/dsnpVDH3

📅 October 29 — 11 AM ET: Designing and Defending AI Agents: A Practical Guide Our VP of Data, Yehoshua (Shuki) Cohen, joins Bar-El Tayouri from Mend.io to discuss what it really takes to build AI agents that are effective, reliable, and secure. The session will explore practical frameworks for structuring and evaluating agentic systems, tackling issues like compound errors and performance trade-offs – while addressing the growing security risks in agent design. Learn how to embed security and trust from the start - and build agents that are resilient by design. 🔗 Register here: https://lnkd.in/eVMgspbY #AIAgents #AI21Labs

🤯 New in Phare: Incident AI Incidents now come with AI-generated summaries and post-mortems, automatically giving you a clear overview of what happened, no manual write-ups required. Powered by Mistral’s Magistral Small model (efficient, privacy-friendly, and definitely not plotting world domination), this feature helps teams focus on fixing, not typing. It’s already available on all plans, with monthly quotas depending on your tier!

Phare goes AI, but not for the marketing clout. I’ve carefully upgraded the monitoring agent to gather more detailed incident data, allowing to generate actually useful summaries and insights. It’s powered by Mistral AI’s Magistral Small, an open-source, efficient model, so efficient it’s even included in the free plan 🥰 And while half the internet is down this morning with the AWS outage, Phare’s still up, sending hundreds of notifications to all of you not using true European cloud 🇪🇺 💪

Most orgs are feeding raw, sensitive data straight into their models and crossing their fingers. BigID’s new Data Cleansing for AI stops the risk before it starts. Automatically redact, tokenize, and govern sensitive data before it hits your LLMs. Learn more: https://bit.ly/47bSgEf

RecordPoint, a Seattle-based data and AI governance platform, is offering a free tool designed to help organizations put guardrails in place before things spin further out of control. https://lnkd.in/gvZ2qvAP

Anthropic has introduced Agent Skills, a new framework that allows AI agents to perform real-world tasks through modular, domain-specific skill sets. Each skill contains its own instructions, logic, and supporting files, allowing agents to dynamically load the right capabilities for the task at hand. This structure transforms a general model into a context-aware expert — ready to act in specialized workflows. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eji2QKy9
