EP6 - Multi-Agent Systems: The Next Big Shift In AI—Yet People Have No Clue About Them

What if AI agents started making decisions for us—and we didn’t even realize it? 

In this episode of In The Loop with Jack Houghton, we dive into the viral “gibberlink” moment—when two AI agents seemingly created their own secret language—and why it’s more hype than reality. But beneath the noise, a quiet revolution is happening: multi-agent systems. These specialized AI agents collaborate, communicate, and tackle complex tasks far more efficiently than a single model ever could—and they’re about to reshape business, technology, and culture in ways we’re only beginning to understand.

We’ll break down what multi-agent systems really are, how they work, and the opportunities (and challenges) they bring. From autonomous workflows and digital assistants to the rise of business-to-agent (B2A) services, this is the next big leap in AI evolution. Stick around to hear why this quiet revolution is set to explode over the next 18 months—and what it means for your life and work.
