Part 8/12:
This trend signals a rapid acceleration in adoption, moving from niche experimental use to mainstream deployment. As a result, AI-powered agents—more sophisticated than simple chatbots—are poised to become a next phase in this adoption journey, with many early-stage experiments currently in the "innovators" phase of development.
The Road to Agents and Beyond
Looking ahead, the deployment of "computer-using agents"—virtual entities that can operate autonomously within digital environments—is on the horizon. These agents, which might run in isolated virtual machines or cloud-based desktops, could evolve into versatile helpers capable of managing tasks, fetching information, or even executing complex workflows.
