A financial agent invents answers, repeats tool calls and produces summaries that its own evaluations flag as wrong.

Proof1 independent outlet

Key points

  • Ankur Duggal connects those failures to a coding agent through Arize's CLI and skills, then asks it to investigate traces, change the application and run experiments.
  • Questions cover local experiment execution, judge models, evaluation costs, sampling and the risk that a coding agent spends its effort on linting instead of the actual defect.
  • 1:58 - Traces reveal an agent's actual decisions
  • 7:27 - CLI and skills as the interface
