This talk explores the shift from static, single-purpose deep learning models towards agentic systems that combine perception, multi-modal understanding, and decision-making to operate independently in real-world environments. Drawing on examples from natural language processing and beyond, we examine the opportunities of building AI agents that are capable of carrying out complex multi-step tasks. **19:55** \- Closing Remarks & Thank You * A chance to wrap things up, share feedback, and express our appreciation to everyone. **20:00** \- Event Ends * We’ll bring the evening to a close, but feel free to keep the conversation going!
