Sponsored by: You.com | Building AI Search Infrastructure for the Agentic Era

AI agents will soon interact with the web more than humans, but the internet's infrastructure was built for people, not agents. This talk explores what open agentic infrastructure actually looks like and why building it matters for anyone developing AI applications.

There's a concerning trend towards consolidation in the new era of agentic-driven economics; as major platforms close APIs and wall off their ecosystems, we risk a future where every business becomes a mere data provider to dominant platforms. To solve this, we need to rebuild the infrastructure layer between foundation models and working applications specifically for agents, and we need to keep it open.

Saahil Jain, CTO of You.com, will share concrete examples of what this new infrastructure requires, the technical and business challenges of keeping it accessible, and how developers and companies can help build the foundation layer that enables sophisticated AI applications without platform lock-in.
