Graph Engineering Isn’t About More Connections — It’s About Which Ones Get Used

Adding more communication pathways between agents doesn’t necessarily improve multi-agent performance. In a controlled, reproducible experiment across 50 runs, recovery remained remarkably stable from 20% to 100% relationship density. But as the network became denser, the fraction of edges actually used fell sharply—revealing a gap between configured connectivity and behavioral connectivity. The post Graph Engineering…

Webwright: Why AI Web Agents Should Write Code, Not Click

For years, web agents have worked one click at a time—and often fallen apart on long tasks. Microsoft Research’s Webwright makes a different bet: give the model a terminal and let it write the program instead. On long-horizon tasks, the same GPT-5.4 model jumps from 33.5% to 60.1% success. And instead of leaving behind a…

Designing a Persistent Knowledge Layer That Refuses to Guess

RAG Retrieves, It Never Remembers. A vendor-neutral blueprint for applications that accumulate understanding. Includes a complete Azure-native implementation (Microsoft Foundry, Azure AI Search, Cosmos DB, FastAPI) mapped to a property-insurance corpus.  The post Designing a Persistent Knowledge Layer That Refuses to Guess appeared first on Towards Data Science.
