Season 2The Internet of Agents

The first internet connected computers. Then it connected people. Now we're building one for agents: software that acts for us, talks to other agents, and eventually pays for things. The rules are being written right now, and this season asks three questions.

If my AI agent buys something from another agent, who gave it permission?
How does the other side know it's really acting for me?
When something goes wrong, who's responsible?

Hosted by Nolan Cohen

Nolan is 13 and in eighth grade. He started Raised by Robots because he's part of the first generation that will grow up with AI making decisions around them, and he wanted to ask the people building it the questions he actually had.

Season one asked who has power in the age of AI. Season two picks up where it ended: with agents that don't just answer us, but act for us, and are starting to act with each other.

Nolan is booking season two now. If you build, study, regulate or write about AI agents, there's a conversation here for you.
