    When Agents Negotiate With Agents with Microsoft Research's Saleema Amershi
    2026/02/28
    This episode is sponsored by Airia. Get started today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠airia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Saleema Amershi is a Partner Research Manager at Microsoft Research AI Frontiers, where she leads the teams behind AutoGen and Magentic-One. She joins the AI Inside podcast to discuss what happens when AI agents stop working in isolation and start collaborating, transacting, and negotiating with each other at scale. We cover the challenges of multi-agent orchestration, why current frontier models show a dangerous first-proposal bias that favors speed over quality, and how her team built the Magentic Marketplace to simulate agent-to-agent commerce. We also dig into agent manipulation, the tension between walled gardens and open ecosystems, and what duty of care means when an AI is acting on your behalf. Learn more about your ad choices.

    What Are AI Agents Doing On Moltbook?
    2026/02/04
    This episode is sponsored by Airia. Get started today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠airia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

We explore what it means when almost all of those agents are actually human‑driven proxies, and whether this is a playful experiment or a worrying blueprint for AI‑driven behavior at scale. We also question why anyone would need a social network just for AI agents, and what security and privacy risks OpenClaw‑style tools introduce when combined with an engagement‑driven platform that rewards risky actions.
