We are in the process of finalizing our schedule. Expect more than 150+ AI leaders to speak at Cypher 2026.
Star sessions to build your own agenda.
Experience IBM Bob through a guided, hands-on lab designed for developers. Build AI-powered applications, generate and modernize code, integrate APIs, debug faster, and explore real-world enterprise development workflows. Leave with practical skills, working examples, and the confidence to start building with IBM Bob in your own projects. Hands-on Lab Requirement:Participants are requested to bring their own laptop for the best experience.
Design a task-oriented AI agent that retrieves information, calls business tools, maintains workflow state and returns structured outputs. Participants learn the engineering foundations required to move beyond prompting toward dependable enterprise agents.
Enterprise AI agents are evolving from simple tool-calling assistants into autonomous systems capable of reasoning, planning, executing workflows, and collaborating with other agents. However, deploying these agents in production requires more than a powerful model and a collection of tools. An Agent Harness provides the engineering and runtime layer that governs how agents discover skills, manage context, select and execute tools, delegate tasks, recover from failures, verify results, and operate within enterprise security and compliance boundaries. In this session, we will explore the architecture of an enterprise-grade Agent Harness, covering progressive skill discovery, context compaction, multi-agent delegation, execution control, verification loops, identity propagation, observability, and governance. We will connect these patterns to real-world enterprise scenarios using Azure AI Foundry and modern agentic AI frameworks. The session will provide a practical blueprint for building AI agents that are not just capable of completing tasks, but are *reliable, observable, governed, and ready for enterprise-scale adoption.
Thoughts from the team on building, learning, and leading at Cypher.
PS: Read all dispatches — and follow the build.
A keynote, a stand and several hundred conversations. The Uber AI Solutions team came away with three specific problems the market kept naming — which is worth more than a lead list.
