Agentic AI will change the world – in short, it changes the maths of almost every business by changing what can be done with capital and what can be done with people.
Agentic AI are systems that use AI to make decisions and then use those decisions to take actions in the real world.
AI agents will be a central part of companies – just as computers and the internet have become central parts of companies over the last 20 years.
All medium and large companies should take some time and money to figure out what (if anything) they should be doing with agentic AI now, and over the next two years.
It is important because – like with computers and the internet twenty years ago – if your competitors get ahead of you, it can mean lost revenue in a benign case, and business failure in a bad case.
For some companies the right steps now will be to start to integrate agentic AI into their businesses. For some other companies, the right strategy now will be to wait for the technology to develop further.
