// Abstract

This panel discusses the real-world challenges of deploying AI agents at scale. The conversation explores technical and operational barriers that slow production adoption, including reliability, cost, governance, and security.

The panelists also examine how LLMOps, AIOps, and AgentOps differ from traditional MLOps, and why new approaches are required for generative and agent-based systems. Finally, experts define success criteria for GenAI frameworks, with a focus on robust evaluation, observability, and continuous monitoring across development and staging environments.
