Agentic AI is rapidly becoming the main focus of technology companies worldwide this week. Instead of using one general AI helper, companies are now building teams of specialized AI agents that work together on specific tasks. These agents can talk to each other and help humans do their jobs better.

Major companies like Google Cloud and The Home Depot announced exciting new agentic AI tools. Technology experts say that by the end of 2026, around 40% of enterprise applications will have AI agents built into them, compared to less than 5% just one year ago. This shows how quickly this technology is growing.

The big change happening is that AI agents are moving from just giving advice to actually taking action and making decisions. For example, instead of a customer service agent putting you on hold, an AI agent can find the answer and come back quickly. Companies are also creating new rules and safety guidelines to make sure these agents work safely and don't make mistakes.

Technology companies in the United States like Amazon Web Services, Cisco, and Oracle are helping their customers build and use AI agents to automate repetitive work. Around the world, companies are realizing that the real power of AI agents comes from having them work together rather than working alone. This week's announcements show that 2026 is truly shaping up to be the year when AI agents become a normal part of how businesses work.
