UC Berkeley professor and Databricks co-founder Matei Zaharia is boosting his team's call for a new large-scale survey of production agents, following their ICML 2026 oral MAP study. They're asking practitioners building and deploying agents in production to fill out a short survey, will release aggregate stats as they did last year, and are recruiting practitioners for in-depth interviews about what's actually working in practice.
