Deploying them into real products, where they interact with users, data, and tools, is a much harder problem. As agent capabilities increase, teams are grappling with a new set of questions: How do you evaluate behavior before deployment? What guardrails actually work in production? Where should accountability sit when an agent takes an unexpected action? And what does it take to earn user trust? During COLM week, Centific and Reinforce Labs are bringing together researchers, builders, and product leaders for a candid conversation about the practical challenges of deploying agentic AI responsibly. We’ll discuss agent evaluations, red teaming, guardrails, production safety, accountability, and user trust, with perspectives from teams building and deploying AI at scale. Come for the speakers.
