Do AI agents still need humans? This week on Mixture of Experts, guest host Matt Kosinski from Security Intelligence is joined by Mihai Criveti, Martin Keen and Kush Varshney.
First, we unpack Google and DeepMind’s massive USD 200B AI infrastructure investment in India— “The Biggest AI Infrastructure Deal in History.” Is this about sovereignty, geography, or something else entirely? Next, Anthropic researcher Nicholas Carlini used Claude to build a fully operational 100,000-line C compiler autonomously. Our experts debate whether this is impressive or inevitable, and what it means for human developers. Then, a sobering reality check: 36% of AI agent skills contain security vulnerabilities. Finally, as IT leaders question AI ROI, we discuss the shift from “how” to “how much” and whether value-based pricing could change everything. All that 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.
