00:00:00
An AI that builds other AIs in real time
00:00:02
with zero coding, zero scripting, and
00:00:05
full autonomy, is no longer an idea.
00:00:08
It's live. Emergence AI, founded by
00:00:11
former IBM researchers, has launched a
00:00:14
system that generates custom agents on
00:00:16
the spot using just a text prompt. In
00:00:18
this video, we're breaking down how this
00:00:20
new tech works, what recursive
00:00:22
intelligence actually means, and why it
00:00:25
could shift how automation works across
00:00:27
enterprise systems. Let's dive in. how
00:00:29
this AI actually builds other AIS. At
00:00:32
the core of emergence AI system is the
00:00:35
orchestrator, a logic engine that
00:00:37
evaluates incoming tasks, determines
00:00:39
what resources are available, and builds
00:00:42
what's missing. It operates by first
00:00:44
consulting an internal registry of
00:00:46
existing agents. If the task can't be
00:00:48
completed with what's already built, it
00:00:50
creates new agents on the fly. These
00:00:53
agents are generated using
00:00:54
state-of-the-art large language models.
00:00:57
According to Venturebe, Emergence's
00:00:59
platform supports models including
00:01:01
OpenAI's
00:01:03
GPT4 O and
00:01:05
GPT4.5, Anthropics Claude 3.7 Sonnet and
00:01:09
Meta's Llama 3.3. Depending on the task
00:01:13
and configuration, the orchestrator
00:01:15
selects the most appropriate model to
00:01:17
generate and refine agent behavior. But
00:01:19
this isn't just about generating code.
00:01:22
Once an agent is built, it's capable of
00:01:24
executing actions, verifying outcomes,
00:01:27
and improving through repetition. A
00:01:30
process emergence calls self-play. The
00:01:33
orchestrator doesn't stop once the
00:01:34
agents are generated. It continues to
00:01:37
monitor performance and learns from task
00:01:39
outcomes. What separates this system
00:01:42
from other agent frameworks is its
00:01:44
complete lack of required manual
00:01:45
intervention. No pipelines need to be
00:01:48
set up. No agent libraries need to be
00:01:50
dragged in. You just describe the goal,
00:01:53
the rest is handled by the system itself
00:01:55
using recursive loops to continuously
00:01:58
reassess and adapt. In practice, this
00:02:00
means the AI is not only building tools,
00:02:03
it's deciding what tools need to exist
00:02:05
in the first place. Orchestrator
00:02:07
architecture and recursive thinking. The
00:02:10
intelligence behind this system comes
00:02:12
from its architecture. The orchestrator
00:02:14
acts like a manager that's constantly
00:02:16
asking two questions. Can I solve this
00:02:19
with what I already have? And if not,
00:02:22
what do I need to build? When it
00:02:24
encounters a task it can't solve, it
00:02:27
generates a new goal. The creation of an
00:02:29
agent that can. This ability to reflect,
00:02:32
plan, and create sub goals autonomously
00:02:35
is what emergence defines as recursive
00:02:37
thinking. Agents aren't created
00:02:39
randomly. They're task specific,
00:02:41
assigned with memory, and given the
00:02:43
ability to plan and verify their own
00:02:45
output. Once created, they're stored in
00:02:47
the internal registry so they can be
00:02:49
reused for future tasks. During the
00:02:52
demo, the company displayed a timeline
00:02:54
of agent creation in real time. Each dot
00:02:57
represented an agent color-coded by
00:02:59
function from categorization to data
00:03:02
extraction to reporting. As tasks
00:03:05
progressed, the orchestrator became more
00:03:07
efficient, creating fewer agents and
00:03:09
relying more on existing ones. This
00:03:11
addresses one of the common problems in
00:03:13
multi-agent systems, bloat. If a
00:03:16
platform creates too many agents for
00:03:18
every new task, it becomes inefficient.
00:03:21
But emergence AI's orchestrator was
00:03:23
designed to consolidate and generalize,
00:03:26
making the system leaner over time.
00:03:28
Instead of endlessly building, it learns
00:03:31
what's reusable, optimizing for
00:03:33
long-term performance, which is crucial
00:03:36
for enterprise scale deployments. real
00:03:38
use cases that matter for the
00:03:40
enterprise. In 2025, much of the AI
00:03:43
agent conversation has revolved around
00:03:45
consumerf facing tools and chatbot
00:03:48
applications. Emergence AI, however, is
00:03:51
focusing on enterprise workflows,
00:03:54
specifically those that are data
00:03:55
inensive, repetitive, and prone to
00:03:58
manual bottlenecks. The platform is
00:04:00
currently being tested across several
00:04:02
enterprise tasks, including automating
00:04:04
ETL pipeline creation, managing
00:04:07
cloud-based data migrations,
00:04:09
transforming and normalizing large data
00:04:11
sets, and building dashboards from
00:04:13
unstructured spreadsheets. It's also
00:04:15
being used for large-scale text
00:04:17
summarization and
00:04:18
classification, tasks that typically
00:04:20
require custom scripts in engineering
00:04:23
oversight. These workflows often involve
00:04:25
repetitive back-end logic that slows
00:04:28
down teams. Emergence AI's orchestrator
00:04:30
is designed to eliminate that friction
00:04:32
by generating and managing task specific
00:04:35
agents automatically without writing
00:04:38
code or configuring pipelines manually.
00:04:40
At the AI engineer world's fair in 2024,
00:04:44
CEO Satya Nita emphasized that while
00:04:46
large language models can now generate
00:04:48
code efficiently, they lack the ability
00:04:51
to execute or verify it. Emergence AI
00:04:54
system fills that gap by pairing code
00:04:56
generation with autonomous agent
00:04:58
execution and embedded oversight. Rather
00:05:01
than outputting a script that still
00:05:02
needs developer involvement, the
00:05:04
platform produces a working solution
00:05:06
that runs end to end with checkpoints
00:05:09
for human validation where needed. This
00:05:12
shift is part of a broader trend. A
00:05:14
Gartner report from the first quarter of
00:05:16
2025 estimates that over 70% of
00:05:19
enterprises will implement some form of
00:05:21
AI agent framework by year's end, up
00:05:24
from just 12% in 2023. The demand is
00:05:28
driven by the need for tools that can
00:05:29
adapt quickly to changing business
00:05:31
requirements without constant
00:05:34
reconfiguration. Emergence AI system
00:05:36
doesn't just solve the task at hand. It
00:05:38
improves across tasks, learns from
00:05:40
outcomes, and becomes more efficient
00:05:43
over time.
00:05:44
Removing the need for constant
00:05:45
engineering input. What makes this
00:05:48
platform different from anything else,
00:05:50
Emergence AI system stands apart from
00:05:52
most existing agent frameworks by
00:05:54
focusing on creation, not just
00:05:57
orchestration. While platforms like
00:05:59
Langchain, Microsoft's Autogen, and Crew
00:06:02
AI focus on linking pre-built agents to
00:06:05
execute tasks in sequence, emergence
00:06:08
AI's orchestrator builds those agents
00:06:10
dynamically from scratch. The difference
00:06:12
is summarized well by CEO Sachinetta's
00:06:15
phrasing. They orchestrate emergence
00:06:18
creates. The platform operates through a
00:06:20
completely no code interface. Users
00:06:22
interact with it through natural
00:06:24
language and the orchestrator handles
00:06:26
everything from agent design to
00:06:28
execution. There's no need to manually
00:06:30
select agents or define workflows. The
00:06:34
system makes those decisions
00:06:35
autonomously. A key differentiator is
00:06:38
how it handles complexity over time.
00:06:40
Instead of endlessly generating new
00:06:42
agents for every task, the orchestrator
00:06:44
learns to generalize. It identifies
00:06:46
patterns across tasks and begins to
00:06:49
reuse existing agents more efficiently.
00:06:51
This addresses the issue of agent sprawl
00:06:54
where systems become bloated with too
00:06:56
many narrowly focused tools. As more
00:06:59
tasks are completed, the system builds a
00:07:01
smarter internal registry. This allows
00:07:04
it to solve future problems using fewer,
00:07:06
more versatile agents, reducing
00:07:08
duplication, optimizing resource use,
00:07:11
and improving long-term performance
00:07:13
without additional human input. The
00:07:15
guardrails, despite its autonomous
00:07:17
capabilities, Emergence AI's platform is
00:07:20
built with multiple layers of safety and
00:07:23
human oversight. These mechanisms are
00:07:25
designed to ensure that enterprises
00:07:27
maintain full control over their
00:07:29
workflows and that the system operates
00:07:31
within clearly defined boundaries. The
00:07:34
platform includes access control layers
00:07:36
to restrict agent creation and task
00:07:38
execution to authorize users. Each agent
00:07:42
is evaluated using verification rubrics
00:07:44
that assess performance, accuracy, and
00:07:47
adherence to task objectives. If an
00:07:50
agent doesn't meet predefined criteria,
00:07:52
it can be flagged or removed before it
00:07:54
impacts production workflows. Another
00:07:57
key safeguard is human in the loop
00:07:59
validation. While the orchestrator can
00:08:01
act independently, it pauses at critical
00:08:03
checkpoints to allow for human review.
00:08:06
This ensures that newly created agents
00:08:08
are operating as expected and aligned
00:08:10
with business goals before being
00:08:12
deployed at scale. Nida has emphasized
00:08:14
that human oversight remains central to
00:08:16
the platform's philosophy. In his words,
00:08:20
you need to verify that the multi- aent
00:08:22
system or the new agents spawned are
00:08:24
doing the task you want and went in the
00:08:26
right direction. Automation is the goal,
00:08:29
but always within a framework of human
00:08:32
defined intent and accountability.
00:08:34
Interoperability and what's coming next.
00:08:37
Emergence AI system is built for
00:08:39
flexibility with compatibility across
00:08:42
multiple models and frameworks. It
00:08:44
supports OpenAI's GPT 4.0 0 and GPT 4.5,
00:08:49
Anthropics Claude 3.7 Sonnet and Meta
00:08:53
Llama 3.3 allowing enterprises to choose
00:08:56
the model best suited to their task
00:08:58
requirements. This also means
00:09:00
organizations can bring their own
00:09:01
foundation models into the ecosystem. It
00:09:04
also integrates with major agent
00:09:05
frameworks such as Langchain, Crew AI,
00:09:08
and Microsoft Autogen. This makes it
00:09:11
easier for enterprises to embed the
00:09:13
orchestrator into existing AI
00:09:15
infrastructure without needing to
00:09:17
replace what they have already built.
00:09:19
Looking ahead, the company has announced
00:09:21
a major platform update scheduled for
00:09:23
May 2025. This update will include
00:09:26
containerized deployment, allowing the
00:09:28
orchestrator to run in any cloud
00:09:30
environment. It will also expand the
00:09:32
systems self-play capabilities, enabling
00:09:35
agents to simulate task variations and
00:09:38
improve more rapidly without external
00:09:40
input. Emergence AI's team includes
00:09:43
researchers and engineers with
00:09:45
experience at IBM Research, Google
00:09:47
Brain, the Allen Institute for AI,
00:09:50
Amazon, and Meta. The company states
00:09:53
that it's still early in development,
00:09:55
but the system is already being tested
00:09:57
in multiple enterprise settings across
00:09:59
the US, Europe, and Asia. Why? This
00:10:03
changes everything long-term. The
00:10:05
emergence of self-building ai systems
00:10:08
signals a shift in how tasks are handled
00:10:10
in both enterprise and technical
00:10:12
environments. While large language
00:10:14
models continue to improve at generating
00:10:16
language and code, they still rely on
00:10:18
human direction. They can suggest
00:10:20
solutions, but they don't act. Agentic
00:10:23
systems close that gap. By combining LLM
00:10:27
output with autonomous agent execution,
00:10:29
platforms like emergence AI's
00:10:31
orchestrator offer a path toward real
00:10:33
autonomy. Instead of coding tools, we
00:10:36
now prompt systems to build them,
00:10:38
reducing the time and expertise required
00:10:40
to translate intent into action. The
00:10:43
long-term implications are significant.
00:10:45
As tasks become more dynamic and
00:10:48
interconnected, static workflows will
00:10:50
struggle to keep up. Recursive systems
00:10:53
that build and evolve their own
00:10:54
solutions could become the default
00:10:56
infrastructure behind enterprise
00:10:58
operations. As this space evolves, the
00:11:00
question becomes less about what AI can
00:11:02
do and more about what you would trust
00:11:05
it to handle. If you've made it this
