18H15- 18H45 - A2A Agents - Alex Thotse
Today's AI agents are powerful, but they mostly live in silos. An agent in one application can't easily talk to an agent in another, limiting their true potential. How do we move from isolated assistants to a collaborative ecosystem of AI? The answer lies in a new, open standard for interoperability. This session dives deep into Google's recently announced Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol, a collaborative effort to enable AI agents—regardless of vendor or platform—to communicate, coordinate, and work together on complex tasks. We will explore the "why" behind A2A and the "how" of its implementation.
