About This Session
As AI agents become persistent and autonomous, memory and governance collide:
What should AI remember—and who controls that memory?
Who is accountable when an AI agent acts on outdated info or moves from chat to real-world action?
Join us for a focused, slide-free interactive discussion on the intersection of long-term AI memory, Agentic AI, safety, and Governance as Code.
