In this video, captured live at Web Summit Vancouver in May 2026, Jon Krohn details how rapidly knowledge work is transforming as a result of AI agents and he provides clear, actionable tips on how to thrive in this era. Specifically, he discusses: • The exponential speed at which A.I. is progressing on coding, machine learning and many other knowledge-worker task categories. • How that progress is, in recent months, being led by agentic A.I. frameworks. • What exactly agentic A.I. is. • How individuals and organizations can flourish in the agentic era. • How to develop and deploy A.I. projects that will provide a positive return on investment (ROI). Jon Krohn is co-founder and CEO of Y Carrot, a software firm that specializes in designing and implementing agentic AI systems for enterprises. He also serves as ML Practice Fellow at Lightning AI and is the host of SuperDataScience, the data science industry’s most listened-to podcast. He wrote the book Deep Learning Illustrated, an instant #1 bestseller that was translated into seven languages. He lectures at leading universities (Columbia, NYU), keynotes at top global conferences (Web Summit, Collision) and presents content on Bloomberg TV that’s viewed by millions. Jon holds a PhD from Oxford and has been publishing on machine learning in prominent academic journals since 2010.
