Why AI Agents Can't Be Trusted Yet (And How to Fix It) | Moe Katib (One)

Village Global Podcast

Description

Moe Katib is the founder and CEO of One (withone.ai), an enterprise-level infrastructure platform that gives AI agents authenticated, reliable access to hundreds of software applications and verified actions. Before One, he spent 12 years solving enterprise integration problems, building the knowledge base that became the foundation for what he's building today.

Village Global GP Anne Dwane sits down with Moe to trace the story behind One: from growing up in Damascus selling packaged chicken out of his uncle's factory, to building water-pump automation devices growing up, to immigrating to Canada after his invention was stolen by a government-connected company. They cover what a decade of enterprise integration work taught him about agent infrastructure, why he made the counterintuitive decision to open source all the integrations he had assembled, and why trust, not speed or scale, is the real unlock for agentic AI adoption.

Moe also shares his own experience running his email entirely through an agent, including the moment his AI sent a rude message to a major VC on his behalf, and what that revealed about the identity problem at the heart of agentic software.
