Building an Internet of Cognition

AI agents already perform complex tasks, but they largely work alone, even when they're technically connected. But what if they could collectively learn from each other, and collaborate?  Our guest wants you to think about when that transition happened for people, with our own intelligence, some 70,000 years ago, when human intelligence stopped being a solo act and became something we did together.Our guest, Vijoy Pandey, runs Outshift by Cisco. He believes AI is standing at that exact threshold right now, and he's building the layer that gets it across the line. A hundred million degrees Celsius. That’s the brutal reality of commercial fusion. This week, we’re sitting down with industry leaders to discuss the front lines of an energy revolution, from surviving extreme thermal stress to building brand-new supply chains.We Meet:  Vijoy Pandey is Senior Vice President and General Manager of Outshift by Cisco, the company's internal incubation engine for emerging technology. Credits:This episode of SHIFT was produced by Jennifer Strong with help from Emma Cillekens.
