Why this matters
Why now

The rapid advancements in large language models and foundation AI models are enabling increasingly sophisticated agentic behaviors, making the development of AI agents for complex tasks more feasible than ever.

Why it’s important

Sophisticated AI agents, especially those integrating vision and extended reality, represent a critical step towards autonomous systems that can collapse white-collar workflows and fundamentally alter human-computer interaction.

What changes

The focus for AI development shifts further towards autonomous systems capable of understanding and interacting with digital and physical environments in a more agentic, goal-oriented manner.
