The cost of scaling agents is catching up with enterprises faster than anyone planned, use of domain-specific models is rising, and workflow redesign is emerging as the single biggest performance differentiator in AI. This edition of Konversation covers all three, and highlights from our Chicago roundtable. Keep reading to know more.
Top 3 Market Insights:
- The Agentic layer in SDLC: Agentic AI tools are now embedded across every stage of SDLC from requirements to deployment, yet most enterprises have no unified visibility into what the agents are doing. Many companies are focusing on building a unified governance layer for org-wide visibility. Governance is going to be critical in the coming decade. Do you have the right plan in place?
- Uber CTOs View on Cost of Scaling AI: A lot of people are talking about Uber CTOs comment which confirms that they burned through their entire 2026 AI budget ahead of schedule. As you scale AI agents, are keeping track of your token consumption? Best to build a token spend management system.
- Domain Specific AI Models in Talks:As per our latest talks with leaders, we are seeing teams running fine-tuned models on specific internal data resulting in faster inference, and lower hallucinations. For industries with on prem data requirements like healthcare & finance it’s the obvious choice. Frontier models are becoming the starting point for experimentation, while the fine-tuned small model is what ships to production.
- Workflow Redesign gap in Enterprises: As most mid-market enterprises race to pick the right AI model, we typically suggest clients to redesign their workflows before deploying AI on them, not after. This single decision helps clients enhance performance more than model selection, vendor choice, or budget size combined. Read the report.
