New research gives AI agents procedural memory that learns from failures and transfers between tasks. Early results show higher success rates with lower token costs—potentially solving the economics that have held back agent adoption.

On the In-House podcast, I shared why AI won’t erase lawyers — but it will change every role inside the legal function. Tools may act like lawyers, yet judgment and oversight remain squarely human.

Block and GSK show successful AI agents adapt to existing workflows rather than forcing teams to rebuild around technology. The key is making AI feel invisible while amplifying human expertise.
