Good stuff Juan. Was waiting for this. Was there all week, and took plenty of notes. Your four are key takes are on point from my humble perspective, and in common with mine. The verticals (especially CustomerLake, and “infinity campaigns” - leveraging the deep technical upgrades you mentioned) say something. Agreed. Also staying away from the “ontology” (quoted for a reason) topics - I expect (maybe optimistically) features will be coming, for those customers who actually care, and want to steer and govern theirs. Absolutely loved the Omnigent keynote spot - for its entertainment factor, clear governance angle, and collaborative contributions.

One of the best quotes from Juan - “The moment your business logic, your semantics, and your context get built on top of any one platform, you’ve made a much deeper commitment than your storage format.” <- #this

Thank you. Was a defining week for me. Glad you saw some of the same.

Cheers

Thanks for takeaways as always.

Agree; do “not” understand how popularity page ranking is an ontology to disambiguate meaning from different data sources/formats, different human knowledge and/or nuanced situations.

Great read, thanks for the deatiled breakdown.

So here’s the question I keep putting to people: what’s your center of gravity? -- my take right now is that any organization with resources should build their own harness and context management system. They should not outsource this to 3p vendors.

This will let them flexibly move between the agentic offerings of different vendors without fear of lock-in, especially as token pricing continue to rise.

This will let them call agents from other systems like they're tools for their own internally managed agent teams that give them both power and flexibility to do their work.

That said, this is just my hypothesis and I'm interested to see how it plays out!
