Agenda Day 1

3:00 PM Agentic AI in the Real World: Lessons from Early Adopters

Agentic AI is evolving faster than traditional testing models were built to support. As organizations move from deterministic automation to adaptive, AI-driven systems, new challenges are emerging in validation, oversight, and operational readiness.

In this session, Dave Vernon, senior solution architect at Cyara, will share practical insights from early adopters actively testing and operationalizing Agentic AI in real-world environments. The discussion will explore what's working, what's breaking, and where legacy QA approaches are struggling to keep pace.

You'll gain a grounded perspective on how enterprises are testing non-deterministic AI behavior, addressing governance and risk, and evolving their validation strategies as agentic systems scale. This session focuses on real-world patterns, hard-earned lessons, and the concrete challenges Cyara is helping organizations solve today.
