Outshift by Cisco on Super Data Science: ML & AI Podcast with Jon Krohn

Quick reality check for anyone building with AI agents. Your agents can discover each other. They can pass messages. They can coordinate on tasks. But here's what they can't do. They can't think together. When your agent figures out how to handle a complex workflow, that knowledge stays isolated. The industry has focused on scaling AI vertically, bigger models, more compute. Those breakthroughs matter. But intelligence also scales horizontally. Agents sharing knowledge across a network, coordinating on common intent, reasoning together. The infrastructure for that second horizontal axis doesn't exist yet. Outshift by Cisco is formalizing it. They call it the Internet of Cognition. They're publishing the architecture and building reference implementations. Read scaling out superintelligence. We've got a link to that in the show notes. Then check out episode number 961. In it, doctor Vijay Pandey, the head of OutShift by Cisco, walks through how horizontal scaling of intelligence works and why it matters.
