This talk explores AI agents as the next step beyond prompt‑by‑prompt assistants. Modern AI agents use large language models plus planning, tool‑calling, and memory to execute multi‑step workflows, not just answer isolated questions. The session explains, in accessible terms, what makes something an “agent” rather than a simple chatbot: the ability to decompose tasks, call APIs or tools, and maintain context over time. It then surveys real use cases, from automating repetitive knowledge‑work tasks to orchestrating complex enterprise workflows that blend human decisions with autonomous actions. For the technical audience, the talk briefly outlines typical agent architectures and how they integrate with RAG, vector search, and existing backend services. For everyone else, it focuses on capabilities, limitations, and where AI agents are realistically being used in 2025. Attendees will understand what AI agents can and cannot do today, and how they differ from the hype.

AWS re:Invent 2025 - Turn unstructured data in Amazon S3 into AI-ready assets with SageMaker Catalog

Unstructured data often holds untapped value, and Amazon SageMaker makes it possible to turn that data into insights and AI-ready assets. In this session, you'll learn how to bring unstructured data from Amazon S3 into SageMaker, create searchable assets, and build knowledge bases for Amazon Bedrock to improve retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) accuracy. Discover how teams can collaborate across roles, data users can self-serve to find and understand the right data, and governance ensures that the right people get the right access. Bayer will share how they use these capabilities to unlock unstructured data and accelerate research and innovation.

Send us a text We go inside Mediahuis to see how a small GenAI team is transforming newsroom workflows without losing editorial judgment. From RAG search to headline suggestions and text‑to‑video assists, this episode shares what works, what doesn’t, and how adoption spreads across brands. You’ll hear about: Ten priority use cases shipped across the groupHeadline and summary suggestions that boost clarity and speedRAG‑powered search turning archives into instant contextText‑to‑video tools that free up local video teamsThe hurdles of adoption, quality, and scaling prototypes into productionTheir playbook blends engineering discipline with editorial empathy: use rules where you can, prompt carefully when you must, and always keep journalists in the loop. We also cover policies, guardrails, AI literacy, and how to survive model churn with reusable templates and grounded tests. The result: a practical path to AI in media — protecting judgment, raising quality, and scaling tools without losing each brand’s voice. 🎧 If this sparks ideas for your newsroom or product team, follow the show, share with a colleague, and leave a quick review with your favorite takeaway.

In the era of information overload, organizations struggle to harness the vast amount of unstructured data stored across presentations, reports, images, and text documents. That's why we created the "Autocurator", an AI-powered tool designed to automatically extract, structure, and curate knowledge from heterogeneous document repositories to support Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems. Autocurator integrates advanced document parsing pipelines, multimodal AI models, and semantic structuring techniques to convert diverse content - including text, slides, tables, and diagrams - into machine-readable knowledge. This enables downstream RAG systems to query not only text-based insights but also visual and conceptual knowledge that traditionally remained inaccessible. Our system employs a multi-stage pipeline: (1) document ingestion and format normalization, (2) de-duplication of redundant and conflicting information (3) multimodal content understanding using large language and vision models, (4) entity and relationship extraction with human-in-the-loop validation, and (5) generation of structured outputs optimized for retrieval. We will showcase Autocurator’s effectiveness on large enterprise document corpora, showcasing significant gains in retrieval precision and generative quality across several applied AI use cases. By bridging unstructured data and structured knowledge, Autocurator provides a scalable and transparent foundation for next-generation knowledge management and reasoning systems.
