PRESENTATION TITLE:
Beyond Black Boxes: Rigorous Evaluation of AI Agents
PRESENTATION SUMMARY:
This talk addresses key challenges in evaluating LLM-powered AI agents: behavioral instability, comprehensive testing, and cascading failures.
We’ll explore advanced techniques including multi-dimensional metrics and automated scenario generation. Gain insights gleaned from hundreds of AI engineering teams in production into implementing agent-specific observability systems and designing robust evaluation pipelines that can handle the complexities of modern AI agents, from detecting subtle regressions to quantifying performance across diverse, dynamically generated test cases.
