Topic: The Rise of AI Agents (Muralidhar Chouhan | Lead Enterprise Domain Architect | Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana)

Details: AI agents are rapidly evolving from experimental tools to practical, scalable solutions that augment real-world tasks. In this session, we’ll explore what AI agents really are—beyond the buzzwords—and how they’re changing the way we design intelligent systems.

We’ll start with a brief recap to set the stage, followed by a breakdown of the key components that make up an AI agent and how they interact. You’ll learn common workflow patterns, when and where AI agents make the most impact, and important design principles to consider before adopting them. We will wrap the session with a live demo.

Bio: I'm a Lead Enterprise Domain Architect at Louisiana Blue, and I've been in the tech world for over 16 years -mainly as a developer and architect. I specialize in low-code/no-code platforms, automation, cloud architecture, and generative Al.
