Bryan McCann: You.com 采用模型无关的“do engine”方法，允许用户在同一平台上访问和比较各种大型语言模型，包括来自 Anthropic 和 OpenAI 等公司的模型。You.com 提供免费和付费的访问方式，付费版本提供更高级的模型、更大的上下文窗口和更高级的功能。You.com 的智能模式类似于 ChatGPT，但它会优化查询并动态选择最佳模型。You.com 的研究模式则更注重准确性和全面性，它会进行多次搜索，并验证语言模型生成的答案是否与原始来源一致。You.com 的 AI 代理能够自主选择工具并执行复杂的工作流程，例如数据分析、代码编写和幻灯片制作。Bryan McCann 预测，到 2025 年，AI 代理的数量将超过人类。You.com 的 B2B 解决方案可以帮助企业提高生产力，并提供定制化服务和 API 集成。 Jon Krohn: Jon Krohn 提问并引导讨论，主要围绕 You.com 的技术细节、应用场景和与其他 AI 公司的差异化竞争策略展开。他与 Bryan McCann 探讨了 You.com 的 AI 代理、研究模式、以及在生物技术和风险投资等领域的应用。
