AI agents are easy to demo. Getting them to work reliably in the real world is a different challenge.

In this episode, Plurai CEO and co-founder Ilan Kadar joins Team8 Managing Partner Aviad Harell to discuss why simulation and rigorous testing are essential to moving AI agents from promising prototypes to production. Drawing on lessons from autonomous driving, Ilan shares how teams can uncover failures before users do, improve agents over time, and build the trust that drives adoption.

The conversation explores the shift from manual testing to tailored simulations, the role of guardrails in production, and why reliability may become the next major bottleneck for AI. The goal: make the discipline that helped autonomous vehicles earn trust a foundation for the next generation of AI agents.
