- The Bot-2-Bot paradigm is quickly becoming an agent to agent
- The supreme of the Cisco network is at the forefront of this evolutionary turning point
- Agents will probably also have their own language, without ignoring human jargon
The next artificial intelligence border develops and, worrying for many, human participation may not be a central requirement.
Discussions in technological circles are increasingly focused on building a framework where AI agents (autonomous reasoning machines) collaborate without problems to achieve complex tasks regardless of human supervision. Nicknamed the “Internet of the agents”, this next step could redefine how companies and industries operate.
Cisco’s outshift group is one of the key players that addresses the challenges of creating the necessary infrastructure to connect these AI agents.
Droidal peak
The vision is certainly ambitious. AI agents of different companies and organizations must be able to automatically be able to exchange data safely and solve collaboration problems.
“We are at another turning point: the movement towards the distributed agent computing,” said Outhift Pandey Pandey in a recent white paper. He described this as “a platform paradigm change than all other platforms in the past.”
Pandey argues that this internet of the agents must be “fast, safe and open”, incorporating advanced hardware software batteries for low latency communication and insurance encryption for safe interactions.
The emergence of the “base models” driven by AI, such as Chatgpt, has already accelerated the evolution of AI agents, which go beyond generating text or images to plan, reasoning and work autonomously. There are still significant obstacles, of course. Cooperation will be needed throughout the industry to establish common protocols, guarantee the scalability of the system and create trusted frames.
Microsoft researchers are adopting a different but complementary approach when addressing communication bottlenecks between AI agents. Singularity He informs that the technological giant has developed “Droidspeak”, a language focused on the machine inspired by the beeps and whistles that are used to communicate in Star Wars. It is designed to be faster and more efficient than human languages such as English.
In an article published in the Arxiv Preprint Server, says Microsoft, “the experiments in various data sets and models show that Droidspeak reaches up to 3x higher yields and 2.6 times faster predection times with loss of insignificant precision compared compared to complete rebuilding.”
Despite the promise, both Cisco and Microsoft recognize that the way ahead is long. Open standards will be necessary for cross compatibility between models and advances in computational efficiency to fully carry out an internet of the agents. However, if it succeeds, and there is no reason to suspect that it will not be, the concept could create a new era of collaboration, and one in which humans play only a peripheral role.
