Imagine a future in which everyone is empowered to build and use their own AI agents. That future may not be far off, as new software is infused with intelligence through collaborative AI systems that work alongside users rather than merely automating tasks.
In this episode of the NVIDIA AI Podcast, Kanjun Qiu, CEO of Imbue, discusses the rise of AI agents, drawing parallels between the personal computer revolution of the late 1970s and 80s and today's AI agent transformation. She details Imbue's approach to building reasoning capabilities into its products, the challenges of verifying the correctness of AI outputs and how Imbue is focusing on post-training and fine-tuning to improve verification capabilities.
