Open harness + model orchestration is the real differentiator vs closed stacks. Same models, very different failure modes once routing is yours.

Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas on the brutal truth about who actually makes money in AI (and why it's not who you think): Aravind argues that the real value in AI comes from orchestration. He points to products like Codex, Claude Code, and Perplexity Computer: "What is that? It's an orchestration system. It takes a model, pairs it with an agent harness." And what is an agent harness? "The simplest way of describing it is like rules for how the agent loop should run. What are all the skills and sub-agents and connectors and tools it accesses? Without the harness, you don't necessarily capture and convert the intrinsic intelligence in the model into valuable output tokens." This leads to a blunt conclusion about who has a real business in AI, and who doesn't: "If you're literally just a reseller of model tokens, you have no business, because the model will get commoditized. So even if you're a model builder, you don't have a business. As an infra layer, you have some business on serving those output tokens. But as an application layer or model builder, you don't really have a business if you're just a reseller of tokens that come directly out of the model." So where does the value accrue? "You have a business if you know how to take the model, ground it in valuable context, orchestrate it with a really good agent harness, connected to the right set of tools and connectors (whether it's personal connectors or business connectors) and provide the experience to people in one single unified system." Aravind Srinivas then explains Perplexity's specific edge: Beyond orchestrating across tools, files, and connectors, they also orchestrate across models. "That is the differentiation that Anthropic and OpenAI cannot claim, because you wouldn't find GPT-5 inside the Claude Code harness. You wouldn't find Claude Opus inside the Codex harness. These are competing with each other. Whereas you would find both these models inside Perplexity Computer." Why does this matter? Because it all comes down to power. In Aravind's framing, the fundamental cost driver in AI is watts (the one input nobody can subsidize except the government). "Whoever provides the most valuable output tokens with the least amount of power expended to produce them generates the greatest value to the end user, has the most pricing power, has the most value. That is the orchestration problem to solve." His conclusion: "The one single most important metric in AI is token value per watt per user."

In the future, you’ll be able to accomplish a goal by just giving Claude an outcome and a budget. That’s the direction Anthropic is building in with its new Managed Agents features, announced at this week’s Code with Claude developer event. The basic idea: Claude, wrapped in a computer in the cloud, that you can spin up, scale, and manage as needed. Anthropic is taking on the infrastructure that kills most agent products, and making sure that it scales to meet the needs of agents running 24/7. On this week’s AI & I from Every 📧, I talk with Angela Jiang (Angela Jiang), head of product for the Claude platform, and Katelyn Lesse (Katelyn Lesse), head of engineering for the Claude platform, about what Anthropic is building and what it takes to make agents reliable in production. We get into: - Why the "build a generic harness, hot-swap any model behind it" playbook is already outdated. Angela points to eval data on Memory where the same task across different harnesses performed drastically differently. - The infrastructure wall every team hits in production—and why Katelyn thinks “my sandbox died and took the agent with it” is the real reason internal agents don't ship. - Why Anthropic is so bullish on using file systems and skills within Claude, including Angela's argument that those early design choices can compound for years. This is a must-watch for anyone trying to take an agent past the demo and into production. Watch below! Timestamps: How the Claude platform evolved from API to agents: 00:01:48 The primitives that make up Claude Managed Agents: 00:04:09 Why the harness and the model are becoming a single unit: 00:10:37 The infrastructure wall that kills most agent projects in production: 00:18:49 Why team agents need a different shape than individual productivity tools: 00:24:49 How Anthropic's legal team uses an agent to review marketing copy: 00:26:36 Using multi-agent orchestration for advisor strategies, adversarial pairs, and swarms: 00:34:24 How to measure agent success with outcome and budget as the end state: 00:35:50 What the platform looks like a year from now, when Claude writes its own harness: 00:39:11

Anthropic's Claude Ai Agents Team just Educated how to build production AI agents in under 30 mins. For Free. From the engineers who built the stack. CANCEL Your Weekend Plans, and Learn to Build AI Agents Today. Bookmark it. Watch it. Build your first production agent this weekend. $5,000/month. $7,000/month. $12,000/month. People are building agents for clients and charging $$$ as Beginners. You're still stuck in the thinking about AI phase. This video fixes that tonight. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more high-signal content that actually moves your AI engineering career forward. ↓ Ivan Nardini runs Developer Relations for AI at Google Cloud. He just gave away the entire production agent stack in 30 minutes. This is the talk that separates people deploying AI agents that actually scale from people whose agents break the moment they leave localhost. Here's everything inside. I break down a production AI video like this every week. Follow Himanshu Kumar. ↓ The 4-part agent stack that actually scales. Most devs are duct-taping frameworks together and calling it an "AI agent." Ivan lays out the real stack: Agent Development Kit (ADK): open-source, code-first framework for building, evaluating, and deploying agents. Supports Claude models through Vertex AI directly. Model Context Protocol (MCP): lets your agent talk to any tool or data source with one standard. Vertex AI Agent Engine: managed platform for deploying, monitoring, and scaling agents in production. No DevOps headaches. Agent-to-Agent Protocol: open protocol so agents built on different frameworks can actually work together. This is the stack replacing every hacky agent setup in production right now. Full MCP + Claude breakdowns drop weekly on Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Building your first real agent. Ivan builds a birthday planner agent live. LLM Agent class. Name it. Define instructions. Pick the model. He uses Claude 3.7 Sonnet. You could use Opus 4.7 for better reasoning. Full agent built in minutes. Not weeks. Watch the build once and you'll never structure an agent the wrong way again. I post agent architectures people pay $500 courses to learn. Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Multi-agent systems without the chaos. Single agents are easy. Multi-agent systems are where 99% of builders fail. Ivan extends the birthday planner by: Adding a calendar service through MCP tools Creating an orchestrator agent to route requests between agents Handling state and context across agent handoffs This is production multi-agent architecture. Clean. Scalable. Debuggable. Most tutorials hand-wave this part. This one shows you every step. Multi-agent orchestration content drops weekly on Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Deployment without the DevOps nightmare. This is where most AI projects die. You build a cool agent locally. It works. You try to deploy it. Everything breaks. Vertex AI Agent Engine fixes this: Minimal code deployment Automatic monitoring of latency, CPU, and memory Built-in observability and logging No infrastructure setup needed You provide config and requirements. The platform handles the rest. This is how agents actually get to production. Deployment guides for Claude agents post every week. Himanshu Kumar. ↓ Agent-to-Agent Protocol: the future nobody's talking about. Most people don't know this exists yet. The A2A Protocol lets agents built in different frameworks communicate seamlessly. Your Claude agent. My LangChain agent. Someone else's CrewAI agent. All talking to each other. All solving parts of the same problem. All without custom integration code. This is the infrastructure layer of the coming AI economy. Getting in early on A2A Protocol is like getting in early on HTTP in 1995. A2A deep dive coming soon. Himanshu Kumar. ↓ 30 minutes from the team shipping this in production. You'll learn more from this than from 6 months of YouTube tutorials made by people who've never deployed an agent past localhost. People who watch this understand production AI agents at the architect level. People who skip it keep hacking together frameworks that break every time an API updates. Save the video. Watch it tonight. Build a real agent this weekend. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more high-signal content that actually moves your AI engineering career forward.

New Course: ACP: Agent Communication Protocol Learn to build agents that communicate and collaborate across different frameworks using ACP in this short course built with IBM Research's BeeAI, and taught by Sandi Besen, AI Research Engineer & Ecosystem Lead at IBM, and Nicholas Renotte, Head of AI Developer Advocacy at IBM. Building a multi-agent system with agents built or used by different teams and organizations can become challenging. You may need to write custom integrations each time a team updates their agent design or changes their choice of agentic orchestration framework. The Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) is an open protocol that addresses this challenge by standardizing how agents communicate, using a unified RESTful interface that works across frameworks. In this protocol, you host an agent inside an ACP server, which handles requests from an ACP client and passes them to the appropriate agent. Using a standardized client-server interface allows multiple teams to reuse agents across projects. It also makes it easier to switch between frameworks, replace an agent with a new version, or update a multi-agent system without refactoring the entire system. In this course, you’ll learn to connect agents through ACP. You’ll understand the lifecycle of an ACP Agent and how it compares to other protocols, such as MCP (Model Context Protocol) and A2A (Agent-to-Agent). You’ll build ACP-compliant agents and implement both sequential and hierarchical workflows of multiple agents collaborating using ACP. Through hands-on exercises, you’ll build: - A RAG agent with CrewAI and wrap it inside an ACP server. - An ACP Client to make calls to the ACP server you created. - A sequential workflow that chains an ACP server, created with Smolagents, to the RAG agent. - A hierarchical workflow using a router agent that transforms user queries into tasks, delegated to agents available through ACP servers. - An agent that uses MCP to access tools and ACP to communicate with other agents. You’ll finish up by importing your ACP agents into the BeeAI platform, an open-source registry for discovering and sharing agents. ACP enables collaboration between agents across teams and organizations. By the end of this course, you’ll be able to build ACP agents and workflows that communicate and collaborate regardless of framework. Please sign up here:
