Alex Porcelli discusses the critical gap in enterprise AI: non-deterministic output and lack of accountability in high-stakes decisions. He shares how integrating DMN decision models with LLMs, agent skills, and NeMo guardrails creates auditable, deterministic agentic architectures - allowing business leaders to own decision logic while engineers maintain robust architectural governance.

Cassie Shum discusses why knowledge graphs serve as a critical foundation for agentic systems. Moving beyond basic RAG, she explains 4 practical architectural patterns: context bundling, decision provenance, code as truth, and agent visibility. She demonstrates an engineering harness built on a knowledge graph to streamline feedback loops, optimize token usage, and maintain system reliability.

LinkedIn has published details of the training infrastructure behind its AI-powered job search, describing a multi-teacher distillation pipeline that compresses knowledge from large teacher models into a compact 0.6B-parameter ranking model.
