Anthropic Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer Jared Kaplan joined TechCrunch Senior Reporter Max Zeff at our Sessions: AI event to talk about the hottest topic within the AI community right now: agents. In Kaplan’s view, chatbots are just the start, and agents will be the next frontier in expanding what AI can be capable of accomplishing.

Kaplan also addressed a couple recent flashpoints with Anthropic, including the company rescinding some model access to the startup Windsurf, reportedly set to be acquired by OpenAI, as well as the company’s stance against some of the Trump admin’s recent AI policies.

    Skip. Not much information about agents for agentic workflows. The interviewer seemed a lot more interested in the business machinations of how Anthropic works or doesn’t work with competitors and how they’ll deal with their competitors and government than anything to do with AI agents in the future.

LLMs may have kicked off this AI boom, but the ceiling is closer than the hype suggests. As models run out of text data to train on, the companies and investors paying attention are already moving on. The next wave isn’t better chatbots; it’s machines that can understand the physical world. Luma AI, the Bay Area lab that raised over $1.4 billion from a16z, Nvidia, and Amazon, is betting on exactly that.

Together, the pair dug into where the next trillion-dollar AI opportunity actually gets built, and whether the companies chasing it even know what they’re building yet.
