Prompting AI just got smarter. In this episode, we dive into Local Prompt Optimization (LPO) — a breakthrough approach that turbocharges prompt engineering by focusing edits on just the right words. Developed by Yash Jain and Vishal Chowdhary from Microsoft, LPO refines prompts with surgical precision, dramatically improving accuracy and speed across reasoning benchmarks like GSM8k, MultiArith, and BIG-bench Hard.
Forget rewriting entire prompts. LPO reduces the optimization space, speeding up convergence and enhancing performance — even in complex production environments. We explore how this technique integrates seamlessly into existing prompt optimization methods like APE, APO, and PE2, and how it delivers faster, smarter, and more controllable AI outputs.

What if an AI could become smarter without being taught anything? In this episode, we dive into Absolute Zero, a groundbreaking framework where an AI model trains itself to reason—without any curated data, labeled examples, or human guidance. Developed by researchers from Tsinghua, BIGAI, and Penn State, this radical approach replaces traditional training with a bold form of self-play, where the model invents its own tasks and learns by solving them.
The result? Absolute Zero Reasoner (AZR) surpasses existing models that depend on tens of thousands of human-labeled examples, achieving state-of-the-art performance in math and code reasoning tasks. This paper doesn’t just raise the bar—it tears it down and rebuilds it.
Get ready to explore a future where models don’t just answer questions—they ask them too.

What if AI agents could collaborate as seamlessly as devices do over the Internet? In this episode, we dive into "A Survey of AI Agent Protocols" by Yingxuan Yang and colleagues from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, a landmark paper that tackles the missing piece in today’s intelligent agent landscape: standardized communication protocols. As large language model (LLM) agents spread across industries—from customer service to healthcare—they still operate in silos, struggling to integrate with tools or with one another. This paper proposes a two-dimensional classification of agent protocols and explores a future where agents form coalitions, speak common languages, and evolve into a decentralized, intelligent network. Expect insights on leading protocols like MCP, A2A, and ANP, a vision for “Agent Internets,” and a compelling case for why protocol design may shape the next era of AI collaboration.

What happens when you put multiple AI agents together to solve a task? You might expect teamwork—but more often, you get chaos. In this episode of IA Odyssey, we dive into a groundbreaking study from UC Berkeley and Intesa Sanpaolo that reveals why multi-agent systems built on large language models are failing—spectacularly.
The researchers examined over 150 real MAS conversations and uncovered 14 unique ways these systems break down—whether it’s agents ignoring each other, forgetting their roles, or ending tasks too early. They created MASFT, the first taxonomy to map these failures, and tested whether better prompts or smarter coordination could fix things. The result? A wake-up call for anyone building AI teams.
If you've ever wondered why your squad of AIs can't seem to get along, this episode is for you.
