What do enterprises need to make AI work? This week on Mixture of Experts, join host Tim Hwang and panelists Marina Danilevsky, Gabe Goodhart, Kaoutar El Maghraoui, and special guest Jamie Garcia. First, we break down IBM Granite 4.1, a family of specialized multimodal models for vision, speech, and embedding tasks, and Project Bob, an agentic coding assistant. Next, we analyze Google DeepMind's DiLoCo distributed training breakthrough that could reshape AI infrastructure and power consumption. Then, we unpack DeepSeek V4, a new 1.6 trillion parameter model featuring 3% activation rates that's rewriting inference economics. Finally, Jamie Garcia, Director of Strategic Growth and Quantum Partnerships at IBM, takes us behind the scenes of IBM's quantum computing strategy, university partnerships, and the path to quantum advantage. All this and more on this week’s Mixture of Experts.

First, Microsoft, OpenAI, Perplexity, and Cloudflare follow TypeSafe’s Jev in building decision models, a new category of AI built to make fast, scored judgments. The panel debates whether these models are truly new or a more efficient application of existing technology, and whether better-calibrated confidence scores can help address the overconfidence problem in LLMs. Next, a new study finds that teams of AI agents can cost two to five times more than a single agent without consistently delivering better results. The panel discusses when multiple agents are worth the added cost and complexity. Finally, Anthropic updates its usage policy to prohibit “sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior” toward its models, raising a bigger question: Is this about protecting AI, shaping human behavior, or something else entirely? The panel considers the ethical implications and whether the policy could also be a marketing play.
