Upcoming conference sessions featuring Eric Johnson

Finding Determinism in a Non-Deterministic World

40% of multi-agent pilots fail within six months of production — not because agents break, but because correct agents interact in catastrophic ways.

In this session, you'll see how event-driven architecture creates blast radius boundaries between agents and deterministic control within each pipeline. Through a live demo of serverless code review agents, you'll learn the architectural patterns that prevent the 2 AM disaster before it starts.

Wednesday Jun 24 @ 2:45 PM @ Accelerate Chicago 2026
