To me, agentic is intent meeting capability—systems that act autonomously, adapt intelligently, and drive purposeful outcomes.
Our guests on this episode—Jonathan Corbin, Sami Shalabi, and Eugene Mann—embody that. They're pushing AI agents forward for real-world enterprise use cases with Maven AGI.
We discuss:
• solving complex challenges with AI agents
• empowering enterprises with cutting-edge tools, and
• why agentic AI will create new roles for humankind
Let’s get into it.
