"What all these keynote speakers talked about was the potential for agentic AI to create an honest to God assistant. Not a dumb GenAI assistant that tries to answer just what you ask, albeit often unsuccessfully. But a real assistant who answers you, makes suggestions for next steps, helps you think through solutions, and helps you implement them. It's like having a devoted friend at your side whose only job is to help in every way."
"Some consumer examples mentioned by CES speakers demonstrate what agentic AI may do for business. An agent can decipher what's in your fridge and create a recipe suggestion based on what's there and what you have historically liked. It can figure out how to season the food based on your taste. It can help you plan an anniversary night out with your spouse based on likes and dislikes it knows."
Agentic AI emerged at CES with major companies presenting practical agent capabilities. Agents function as real assistants that go beyond generative AI by offering proactive suggestions, planning, and execution. Examples include refrigerator inventory-based recipe creation and seasoning recommendations, personalized anniversary planning, and coordinating rideshare pickups with navigation details. Predictions identify 2026 as a pivotal year for widespread agent adoption. The growing maturity of agentic AI indicates concrete benefits for consumers and businesses and suggests legal frameworks should start considering associated risks.
