This week brought important developments in agentic AI that could impact accessibility and inclusion.

A major report from Gartner warned that over 40% of agentic AI projects might be canceled by 2027. Researchers found many projects fail because they lack clear value or don't handle risks properly. This matters for accessibility because canceled projects might not get to help people with disabilities.

In Russia, Siberian AI Center and Sberbank launched a new AI agent. This expands agentic AI technology to more people in Russia. While details are limited, such developments could lead to tools that help diverse groups if designed inclusively.

These events show agentic AI is growing fast, but projects must focus on real human needs to succeed and help everyone.
