Agentic workflows are artificial intelligence-powered software systems that chain together multiple models and external tools to tackle complicated tasks, like analyzing a video and answering questions about it.
At the recent AI and Society Forum at MIT, experts from across the Institute discussed the potential benefits and dangers of technological innovation on labor, the nature of work, civil discourse, election administration, and other topics.
A new chip developed by MIT researchers could help tiny, low-power UAVs avoid obstacles as they zip around tight corners inside an industrial HVAC system to check for gas leaks.
Andrew W. Lo, MIT Professor in the Sloan School of Management, CSAIL PI, and Faculty Co-Director of FinTechAI@CSAIL, says, "The question is: `Do large language models have our back?’ The answer is no, not yet.”
