Agentic AI

Agentic AI refers to AI systems that can understand objectives, plan a sequence of steps and independently use tools to complete tasks. Recent developments span model delegation to reduce costs, enterprise adoption and multi-window collaboration, as well as cloud infrastructure, identity and access management, payments and crypto asset management. At the same time, coding success rates remain below 50%, while defenses against malicious agents have emerged as another concern. Performance, cost, security and governance will directly determine whether businesses can move AI agents from experiments into reliable day-to-day operations, making this a topic worth watching closely.
