Is Orchestration the Future?

This session introduces multi-agent systems (MAS) and traces their evolution - from standalone LLMs handling single tasks, through orchestrated agentic workflows, to fully autonomous distributed networks where agents independently reason, delegate, and collaborate across organizational boundaries. Along this progression, a new class of engineering challenges emerges: reasoning loop control, message ordering, error recovery, and observability when agents communicate faster than humans can follow.
 We advance a core thesis: the future of communication is AI-to-AI, with natural language as the universal API.
